Also known as 50 Let Pobody, this ship is one of the world’s largest, most-powerful nuclear icebreakers. It's an Ice Class LL1 vessel, which is the highest possible rating. A unique spoon-shaped bow, the first of its kind, makes 50 Years of Victory well equipped to handle all Arctic elements. It's also powered by a 75,000-horsepower nuclear engine that fuels one-of-a-kind explorations. This sturdy ship makes it possible to take an unforgettable journey to the North Pole!
Made of stainless steel, this first-ever Arctic class icebreaker is designed to plow through sea ice of up to 9.2 feet! The strongest icebreaker ever created provides ultimate protection against adverse Arctic conditions.
In 2008, 50 Years of Victory made its maiden voyage to the Northeast Passage for Quark Expeditions, which previously made the first tourist transit to the North Pole in 1991. Its LL1 ice-breaking class and spoon-shaped bow give this powerhouse vessel the ability to make such an awe-inspiring journey. Trekking to the top of the world is a bucket-list item and truly a voyage unlike any other.
While the destination is a major draw to sailing on 50 Years of Victory, guests will also find a relaxing and enjoyable experience on the boat. When not witnessing the Arctic, travelers can unwind with some of the following activities:
The Victory Bar is also a great place to get a drink while meeting fellow passengers, and you may also be able to watch the Captain steer the ship from the Bridge.
