National Geographic Endurance is the “ultimate tool” for exploring the wildlife-rich environment of South Georgia, says Captain Oliver Kruess who has ventured to this remote destination more than 70 times. The ship's state-of-the-art propulsion system, which includes two azipod stabilizers, ensures a smooth ride even in high winds, and her shallow draft and efficient Zodiac deployment system allows for quick access to shorelines alive with king penguins and diverse flora.
In this episode of Meet the Fleet, Captain Kruess shares why navigating the waters of South Georgia aboard National Geographic Endurance is one of the best and safest ways to explore this unbelievable subantarctic island.
