deck is already capable of helicopter operations, thus catering for all scenarios.
fffConceived as an ocean-going purpose built explorer, the 54.9m STEEL is capable of tackling the harshest of environments in extreme conditions. Certified as 1A ice-class, The Edge takes a look at what makes this yacht polar ready.
7 Ice-ready props Supplied with two sets of propellers,
her pitched ice props with specially strengthened blade tips allow her
to cruise in high latitude conditions. Custom designed rudders act as “ice knives” and can withstand going full astern through 1m of brash ice.
6 On expedition
STEEL is designed with more than
double the standard number
of frames (at 275mm spacing) so that in the event of being caught in pack ice, she is better equipped to resist the immense compression forces encountered in extreme latitudes.
