HISTORY

The vessel was built in Holland in 1951. She fulfilled several duties as a navy ship and a pilot ship. In 1974 she was reconstructed as a research vessel and served for many years. Bought by a project developer in 2007, it was rebuilt as a luxury yacht for cruises and diving expeditions. The current owner acquired the vessel in 2012, and completely renovated her into a state-of-the-art vessel with a stylish, comfortable modern interior. The ship systems were totally serviced and upgraded and include some of the following equipment.
