OCEAN EXPLORER and OCEAN ODYSSEY

OCEAN EXPLORER and OCEAN ODYSSEY return to operation

CruiseSunStone Maritime Group announced the reactivation of two Infinity Class Expedition vessels with multi-year charters signed for the OCEAN EXPLORER and the OCEAN ODYSSEY. The OCEAN EXPLORER will return to polar cruising in October 2024, when Quark Expeditions, a long-term client of SunStone, adds the vessel to its fleet of expedition vessels. The OCEAN ODYSSEY will operate outside the cruise market.

In October 2024, the Quark charter of the OCEAN ADVENTURER ends, after which time this vessel will be available for sale or charter.

About the Infinity Class

In addition to Ice Class 1A and Polar Class 6, the vessels feature zero-speed stabilization, virtual anchoring, and Safe Return to Port. The Infinity vessels, having a capacity of up to 95 passenger cabins, most with balconies, promise an immersive and comfortable experience for travellers. The ships house a range of amenities, including restaurants, lecture space, lounges, a 180-degree indoor observation deck, outdoor viewing areas, a gym, sauna, spa, and a custom-designed platform catering to kayakers and divers.

Zodiac excursions are supported through four sea-level loading platforms and a mud room, ensuring seamless operations for off-board activities.
