Octopus is one of the first and largest examples of an all-out exploration vessel. It’s equipped with highly sophisticated technology to support scientific research voyages that require months at sea, including an integrated dock for both the principal 66-foot tender and two submersibles, one of which is remotely controlled for reaching greater depths. Designed by Espen Øino, it also has a professional music studio, a cinema, two helipads, and a hanger aft.
