Built in Ecuador's principal port, Guayaquil, in 1994 specifically for stable cruises in the Galapagos. Each of her cabins, decorated with an attractive teakwood, have single upper/lower berth, locker, full bath with hot shower, and vanity.
Her spacious interior is fully air-conditioned and carpeted, from the comfortable lounge with large panoramic windows, stereo and TV/VCR, to the elegant dining hall. The galley serves fine meals with a blend of international and Ecuadorian cuisine on a luxurious setting. Her numerous sun decks are both shaded and open perfect for lounging in the open air or drying off after snorkeling among penguins and sea lions.
