HMS Endurance is an icebreaker that served as the Royal Navy ice patrol ship between 1991 and 2008.

 


Built in Norway as MV Polar Circle, she was chartered by the Royal Navy in 1991 as HMS Polar Circle, before being purchased outright and renamed HMS Endurance in 1992.

She has been out of service since 2008, when she was seriously damaged by flooding following an error during routine maintenance on a sea suction strainer. In October 2013 it was reported that she would be scrapped.
