About This Vessel
This coastal vessel is a boutique, ocean-going passenger ship engineered specifically for intimate domestic exploration and short regional voyages. Originally built in 1988 and last refurbished in 2014, the ship features a unique, small-scale structural design. With a length overall (LOA) of 68.28 meters (approximately 257 feet), a beam width of 12.19 meters (43 feet), and a gross tonnage of 2,354 GT, this nimble vessel easily navigates shallow waterways, narrow channels, and secluded ports that are completely inaccessible to massive mega-cruise liners. Powered to maintain a steady cruising speed of 13 knots, the vessel is not SOLAS compliant and is explicitly suited for non-SOLAS coastal routes. Having been laid up for several years, the vessel is currently inactive and will require a focused refit of the cabins and public areas to restore its interior to premium commercial standards. However, the ship benefits from recent structural preservation, as extensive steel work has already been completed on the decks and railings.
Onboard, the vessel offers an exceptional passenger-to-space ratio across its 5 passenger decks, making it an ideal canvas for an operator looking to deliver an uncrowded, personalized cruising experience. The layout features between 54 and 69 staterooms and cabins that comfortably accommodate a maximum passenger capacity of 138 guests. To ensure seamless operations and attentive hospitality, the ship's plan accommodates a dedicated professional crew of 42 to 45 staff members. The intimate size of the ship is designed to foster a warm, club-like atmosphere where future guests can enjoy relaxing public lounges, panoramic viewing areas, and beautifully appointed dining venues, making it an excellent acquisition or renewal project for the right maritime venture.
