You will feel at home in the un-crowded living space of
this wide beamed vessel heavily built and finished with quality timber. We

and 2 doubles, with queen size beds and large en suites with hot water
showers and hairdryers. The cabins have mini-bar, locker and drawers for

Relaxing with the welcome drink served by our courteous
waiter, your first impression of the boat is perhaps her signature salon
furnished with upholstered sofas and chairs, music system, TV and VCR with
video camera viewing facilities and camera tables---one of the largest and
most comfortable salons found on any vessel of this size in existence. Two
round tables each seating six guests stand on one side of the salon opening
into a smaller one in the rear conveniently laid for working cameras with a
lounge chair and light table. Slide projector and E-6 are at hand and ample
220 (British Standard square pin plugs) and 110 (US Standard flat plugs)
volt power outlets, no transformers or adaptors needed. This is a vessel
designed and equipped with underwater photographers in mind. NITROX is

The top deck with the shaded area furnished with deck
chairs is the place for soaking in the sun or star gaze in the evening,
lying down if you prefer on an adjustable padded chair. The common bar with
the ice-maker is in the shade.
