MS Bremen, is a cruise ship operated by Hapag Lloyd since 1993. She was built as Frontier Spirit at the Mitsubishi Shipyard, Kobe (Japan) in 1990. During a storm in the Southern Atlantic in 2001, a rogue wave caused heavy damage, even breaking a window on the bridge. It left the ship adrift for two hours without propulsion. A previously uncharted island in the Antarctic was discovered by Bremen in 2003, was named Bremeninsel in 2004. Bremen was also featured in the show Killer Waves.
In 2006 she successfully ran the Northwest Passage [1], helped by satellite images telling where sea ice was.
