Giant ship MS Nordnorge struggling in a sea storm

The MS Nordnorge is a Hurtigruten (Norwegian Coastal Express) ship. It was completed in 1997 by Kværner Kleven in Ulsteinvik, Norway, as a sister ship to MS Polarlys and MS Nordkapp. The Nordnorge has a gross tonnage of 11,386, crew capacity of 57, and can carry up to 691 passengers.

Since 2002 the Nordnorge has been employed in Antarctic cruise service during the northern hemisphere winter.[1]

There have been four Hurtigruten ships with the name of Nordnorge, which is Norwegian for "Northern Norway" – the common name of the three northern Norwegian counties.

During 2009 Nordnorge did not operate on the coast of Norway. The ship was hired out at the end of 2008 as a hotel ship in the Mediterranean, possibly in Venice.
