A Greenpeace Icon

Our flagship, the Rainbow Warrior, is the first ship in the fleet designed and built specifically for Greenpeace. It’s also one of the most energy-efficient ships on the high seas today. 

We designed and built the Rainbow Warrior with the latest technology to reduce carbon emissions and primarily sail using wind power that also features an eco-friendly design that includes exhaust gas treatment and a central filling and venting system to prevent spills.
