}} | The MV Gondwana was a ship acquired by Greenpeace in 1988, originally built in 1975 and called the Viking. Greenpeace updated the ship with a helipad and accommodation space was increased to sleep 33 people. The ship was used to supply the Greenpeace World Park Base in 1988/89 and was involved in direct action to protest against Japanese whaling in the Southern Ocean in the late 1980s.[1] References1. ^{{cite book |last=May |first=John |title=The Greenpeace Book of Antarctica |year=1989 |pages=170 |publisher=Doubleday |isbn=0-385-26280-9 }}
