Other Comments This is a small cruise vessel that can transport you in comfort and safety to destinations inaccessible to most cruise vessels, allowing intimate contact with the environment. With its 960 tons , it is small enough to go where large ships can't and enough large to offer comfort, stability and security. The size of the ship, being able to accommodate passengers very comfortably, is perfect. Not too big, but still large enough to provide the passengers with a secure feeling. The dining rooms, salonbar, business room and massage room are just right for an expedition-style of voyage where the participants don't spend too much time in their cabins. The best of the two worlds!
