    Sylvia Earle Overview

    Sylvia Earle

    The Sylvia Earle honours the highly accomplished marine biologist, oceanographer and explorer, Dr. Sylvia Earle. As the first female chief scientist of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and named by Time Magazine as its first Hero for the Planet in 1998 – this vessel pays tribute to Dr. Earle’s long-standing conservation efforts for marine protected areas and ocean wildlife. Dr. Sylvia Earle will be involved in the development of her namesake. Featuring the revolutionary Ulstein X-BOW, this allows the ship to cross oceans more comfortably and efficiently. Due to a combination of low energy consumption, high fuel efficiency, and a streamlined design, Aurora Expeditions ships have the world's least polluting marine engines. The advanced Tier 3 engine achieves an 80% reduction in emissions. On-board desalination plants convert seawater to potable fresh water. Ships carry less fresh water on sea crossings as a result, further reducing fuel consumption.
