The Ocean Tramp isn’t just a boat—it’s your cozy, floating home as you sail to the wilds of Antarctica. Picture this: a 66-foot ketch, rugged yet charming, with a steel hull ready to tackle the fiercest Southern Ocean waves. On deck, the wind fills the sails, propelling you at speeds of up to 8 knots, while the ice-capped mountains and deep-blue waters of the Antarctic unfold around you. Below deck, the Ocean Tramp offers five snug cabins, each with a warm, wood-paneled interior that makes you feel right at home. There’s a communal space where you can swap stories over a hot drink, and a galley that’s always filled with the aroma of something delicious cooking. Whether you’re lounging in the cozy saloon or stepping outside to feel the brisk polar wind on your face, this boat strikes the perfect balance between adventure and comfort. It’s the kind of vessel where you wake up to the sound of seabirds, spend your days exploring glaciers and icebergs, and fall asleep to the gentle rock of the ocean under a sky full of stars.
