About NG ENDURANCE
National Geographic Endurance is an expedition ship with an ice-strengthened hull owned and operated by Lindblad Expeditions. The vessel has an ice-strengthened X-bow hull. She is the lead vessel of the Endurance class. The ship was followed by her sister ship, National Geographic Resolution (2021). The hull was constructed at the CRIST shipyard in Gdynia, Poland, and finishing work was completed at Ulstein Verft in Ulsteinvik, Norway. Construction of the vessel began on 17 March 2018, she was launched on 24 April 2019, and completed in March 2020. The ship was named in honor of Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton and his vessel, Endurance. The X-bow design, previously used in offshore industry vessels, is intended to reduce the impact of waves on the hull, which decreases noise and vibration and enhances onboard comfort.
