Nansen Explorer Yacht | 235' Custom 1983

Question: What do you get if you combine top-tier ice breaking capability, extensive adventure equipment, and luxury living spaces? Answer: Nansen Explorer. As one of 10 sisterships, Nansen Explorer has risen from the ranks to stand out from her contemporaries. With the benefit of a significant refit in 2021, and having been brought up to class, her commercially certified helipad – with a registered capacity of 4.8 tonnes – the addition of stern thrusters and her much larger lounge area, which features a bar for guests, enlarged windows, and high ceilings, sets her apart from the rest.Perfectly at home in off-the-beaten-track areas such as Antarctica or Svalbard, Nansen facilitates the ultimate adventures – either as a superbly-equipped support vessel (the yacht carries large amounts of fuel to be able to refuel helicopters or indeed a mothership) or as a standalone expedition vessel. Offering accommodation for up to 12 guests in seven double cabins and 17 crew cabins, plus 1 medic’s cabin, her Scandi chic living areas are tranquil and tasteful, providing a luxurious environment for relaxation in between adventures.Functionality is in her DNA; Nansen Explorer has the ability to launch her Zodiacs quickly, deploy fast heli ops from her large helideck and offer all the required equipment from her adventure hangar. Owned and operated by experienced expedition yacht specialists, and named after Norway’s most famous and well-liked expeditionist, Nansen Explorer is a unique proposition.

Nansen Explorer Exploration On A Global Scale

Question: What do you get if you combine top-tier ice breaking
capability, extensive adventure equipment, and luxury living
spaces? Answer: Nansen Explorer. As one of 10 sisterships,
Nansen Explorer has risen from the ranks to stand out from her
contemporaries. With the benefit of a significant refit in 2021,
and having been brought up to class, her commercially certified
helipad – with a registered capacity of 4.8 tonnes – the addition
of stern thrusters and her much larger lounge area, which
features a bar for guests, enlarged windows, and high ceilings,
sets her apart from the rest.
Perfectly at home in off-the-beaten-track areas such as Antarctica
or Svalbard, Nansen facilitates the ultimate adventures – either
as a superbly-equipped support vessel (the yacht carries large
amounts of fuel to be able to refuel helicopters or indeed a
mothership) or as a standalone expedition vessel. Offering
accommodation for up to 12 guests in seven double cabins and
17 crew cabins, plus 1 medic’s cabin, her Scandi chic living
areas are tranquil and tasteful, providing a luxurious environment
for relaxation in between adventures.
Functionality is in her DNA; Nansen Explorer has the ability to
launch her Zodiacs quickly, deploy fast heli ops from her large
helideck and offer all the required equipment from her adventure
hangar. Owned and operated by experienced expedition yacht
specialists, and named after Norway’s most famous and wellliked
expeditionist, Nansen Explorer is a unique proposition.

Interior Living Space To Relax

Cool and contemporary Scandi design characterizes Nansen
Explorer’s interior spaces. Comfortable and spacious, there is
plenty of scope for relaxation back on board after some serious
adventure outside. With a generously-sized gym on board too,
there’s every opportunity for activity.
The well-considered layout includes a mudroom, where guests
can dispense with any specialist equipment or outerwear as
they return from their excursions before heading into the warmth
beyond.
As a commercially compliant vessel, Nansen Explorer’s interior
spaces are very well suited to luxury charter and a large part of
what gives the yacht her potent charter potential.
Meanwhile the adventure hangar is an Aladdin’s cave of
equipment for any type of expedition or adventure - housing
SUPs, kayaks, as well as skiing, diving, mountaineering and
polar survival gear.

Cabin Arrangement Total Comfort Anywhere

The seven staterooms are similarly chic in style, offering peace
and privacy. The principal cabin has a lounge and office area
and all cabins are ensuite, with very spacious bathrooms. During
the 2021/22 refit, the windows were opened up to afford
guests spectacular views from the comfort of their cabins.
The crew are accommodated in 18 cabins, 13 of which are
single occupancy, including one medic’s cabin/hospital.
