Artist's Description
Ywam Liberty is the former L'Astrolabe, a French icebreaking research vessel used for bringing personnel and supplies to the Dumont d'Urville research station in Antarctica.
The vessel has been making regular voyages between Hobart and the Dumont D’Urville research station for fifteen years. L'Astrolabe is among the smallest research vessels working in Antarctic waters.
The vessel is frequently serviced in the Tasmanian shipyard Southern Marine Shiplift in Launceston. The yard's maximum ship displacement is 2150 Tonnes.
L'Astrolabe was replaced by a new icebreaker bearing the same name in 2017.
