OFFSHORE RESEARCH VESSEL !!!!!!!!!!!


originally Built in 1974 by the French Government and in association with Jacques Cousteau.
She is one of very few ships, ever built for submersible support and is the only vessel equipped with three submersibles. She has been completely rebuilt, with all new engines, generators, wiring, hydraulics, shafts etc. Her hull had been completely ultra sounded and any areas found to be worn, or unable to be given a 25 year life, have been replaced. She has been reclassed by Bureau Veritas.
Her accommodations for owner and guests are of Yacht quality and her operational capabilities far exceed any vessel offered today.
She has the ability to carry three submersible deep diver submarines and a helicopter in a hanger that can close off in heavy weather. The other 5 watercrafts and custom built 32’ submersible
tender fit securely and comfortably on deck.

Truly a one of a kind!
