Hans Hansson was specifically built to withstand challenging weather. She started her career as a life-saving vessel in Norway, was then purchased by Sweden, and has now transitioned to taking passengers on unforgettable trips to Antarctica and to the amazing corners of the world. Her hull – designed to withstand the waters of the infamous North Sea – is perfectly suited for exploring Antarctica. Hans Hansson is an amazing platform from which to watch whales and icebergs – taking amazing photos. She is also small and maneuverable enough to get into smaller places. Hans Hansson is 26 meters long and she can take up to 12 passengers. It’s an ideal vessel for those looking to travel to Antarctica in comfort and safety. See below for technical specs.
