Launched in 2019, the Greg Mortimer is a modern, robust and powerful 104-metre ship at the cutting edge of nautical technology. With its patented Norwegian-designed X-BOW, it’s capable of negotiating the strongest winds and waves, and the most adverse weather conditions. Named after Aurora’s co-founder, the Greg Mortimer carries an average of 130 passengers in a range of 76 well-appointed suites and staterooms.
This modern ship was designed to minimise fuel use, with a focus on sustainability
The ship itself features unique viewing platforms that fold out hydraulically to give unobstructed views
With X-Bow technology, you’ll enjoy more stability if seas are rough on the Drake
Designed for Antarctic exploration
The ship carries 15 zodiacs that launch from specially designed launching platforms to ensure fast and easy boarding for shore landings and cruises. Itineraries aboard the Greg Mortimer also offer a range of optional activities including kayaking, diving, climbing and ski touring, and the ship’s design includes a spacious prep and loading platform.
Reduced environmental impact
The Greg Mortimer operates with low energy consumption, high fuel efficiency and a streamlined design to deliver a reduction in emissions. The ship can also utilise virtual anchoring to hold its position using a combination of GPS, steering technology, propellers and thrusters. This protects the sea floor and minimises the damage caused by conventional anchors.
