It’s named after Sir Douglas Mawson, a British-Australian polar explorer and contemporary of both Ernest Shackleton and Robert Scott. In 1911, he led a team to explore the Antarctic, but the mission turned into tragedy when both his companions died, and Mawson only survived by hiking 100 miles alone across the frozen wilderness.
Although extremely comfortable, it's important to remember Douglas Mawson is an expedition vessel – not a cruise ship, in other words. It prioritises wildlife encounters and exploring remote environments.
