This icebreaker was built in 1967 and is named after the sea rescuer Stephan Jantzen (1827-1913). The ship is off duty now. Although plans were to convert the vessel into a luxury icebreaker for private tours to the Arctic and the Antarctic, it is still waiting for a new assignment at Rostock City Harbour.
