Professor Molchanov

Built in Finland in 1982-83 for polar and oceanographic research, the Professor Molchanov has been regularly refurbished since her conversion to passenger use in the 1990s. The ships'' ice-strengthened hulls make her ideal for polar expedition travel. And thanks to her nimble, compact size, the ship''s expert crew has the flexibility to venture into areas you could never reach on a larger vessel.
