The vessel, originally designed to navigate the ice-choked waters off Western Greenland, was upgraded in 2000 and significantly refurbished in 2006. The cabins are all outside and range from triples to twins (a few with upper/lower berths) – all with private facilities. With a spacious dining room and a glass-enclosed observation lounge and presentation room on the top deck, this expedition vessel is a comfortable option for discovering the polar regions. Sister vessels, Akademik Ioffe and Akademik Sergey Vavilov, were built by the Russian Academy of Science to partner each other in sensitive hydro-acoustic ocean research. They were designed to be exceptionally stable, manoeuvrable, fast and quiet. Inside the ships there is little, if any, ambient engine noise or vibration. The ships have a sophisticated stabilisation and trimming system built into their icestrengthened hulls. All cabins have an outside view, with portholes or a window, are comfortably furnished, and most have private or semiprivate facilities. The ample public areas include a library, bar, lounge, sauna and open-air plunge pool as well as a spacious top deck for spectacular views. The Akademik Sergey Vavilov features a panoramic lounge and bar on deck 6. 416 414 412 410 408 406 404 402 417 415 411 409 407 405 403 401 302 304 306 308 310 312 314 316 318 320 322 319 321 323 325 301 303 305 307 309 311 315 317 210 201 208 206 204 202 Dinning Room Bridge Zodiac access Ocean Nova Onboard • Glass enclosed observation lounge and presentation room • Spacious dining room with unreserved seating • Lounge & bar • Exercise room • Library with polar-themed books • Ship to shore communications via satellite Aft Observation Deck Zodacs DECK 3 DECK 4 DECK 5 DECK 6 328 329 330 331 332 326 325 324 306 307 308 309 310 311 312 313 314 327 Dining Hall Reception 401 403 404 406 407 410 411 414 415 419 422 452 450 449 447 446 444 443 441 440 537 434 Lifeboat Rescue Boat Lifeboat Forward Observation Deck 501 538 536 535 532 531 529 506 509 510 513 514 516 521 610 608 606 604 602 Bridge 609 607 605 603 601 Akademik Ioffe & Akademik Sergey Vavilov Onboard • Expert naturalists & historians • Open bridge • Theatre style presentation room • Gym, sauna & swimming pool • Infirmary • Panoramic lounge & bar (Akademik Sergey Vavilov) • Lounge & bar (Akademik Ioffe) • Well-stocked library • Gift shop 208 F O R R E S E R V A T I O N S C A L L U S O N 0845 130 6982 Vessel Statistics Built Denmark 1992 Length 73 metres Breadth 11 metres Draft 3.7 metres Cruising Speed 12 knots Passengers 68 Crew 38 Registered Bahamas Engines Diesel 2,000 hp Class Ice 1B, Eo (Hull Ice 1A) GRT 2,118 tons Vessel Statistics Built Finland 1988-89 Length 117.04 metres Breadth 18.28 metres Draft 6.09 metres Cruising Speed 14.5 knots Passengers 110 Crew 53 Registered Russia Engines 5000 KW diesel twin Class Ice Class, KM* L1(1) A2 Canadian Type B GRT 6,450 tons ADVENTURE ADVENTURE
