RV Atlantis was a ketch rigged research vessel for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution from 1931 to 1966. The Government of Argentina's National Scientific and Technical Research Council acquired her in 1966 and renamed her El Austral, transferring her to the Argentine Naval Prefecture in 1996 as the training and survey ship PNA Dr. Bernardo Houssay (MOV-1). In 2005 it was decided that a replacement vessel, with modern capablities and equipment was required and a new ship was built in Argentina, with a hull and rig along similar lines, and incorporating some small parts of the original. She was completed in 2009 and put into full service in 2011, again as Dr. Bernardo Houssay.
