60 South

60 South is an expeditionary sailing company that offers one of the only FLY-SAIL combinations available for yachts. We offer trips that fly both ways across The Drake Passage and join our vessels in Antarctica. Our three vessels are: Hans Hansson, Meredian, and Ocean Tramp. Hans Hansson is a motor yacht, an ex-Norwegian life saving vessel, and can carry 12 guests. Meredian is an ex fishing an guard vessel refitted for expedition micro cruising, taking 12 guests. Our sailboat, Ocean Tramp is a 66 feet ketch rigged sailboat, with 5 cabins. She very comfortably can carry 8/10 guest plus two crew members. She is a very fast sailboat thanks to her long length, making for a short passage the sailing across the Drake. All are ideal for photographers, hikers, divers, scientists and all sort of expeditions that need a large capacity vessel with plenty of storage as well as the needed comfort when living on a sailboat or smaller vessel for longer periods of time. In addition to planned trips, 60 South also runs trips for scientific, and mountaineering, and film expeditions. Science work and science education is a core value that is incorporated into every trip.
