This 120-foot steel motor yacht began life as a North Atlantic scallop dragger, built in 1982 to endure extreme commercial fishing conditions. She subsequently served as a research and training vessel for Memorial University in Newfoundland before undergoing comprehensive reconstruction between 2019 and 2021 at Glovertown Shipyard. The refit transformed her into a dedicated expedition platform while preserving her proven seaworthiness and robust construction.
The yacht accommodates eight cabins with eight heads, providing comfortable living spaces suited to extended offshore voyages. She is powered by a single 1100 hp CAT diesel engine, delivering a cruising speed of 9.5 knots and a maximum speed of 12 knots. Her steel hull and purposeful design enable confident operation across diverse conditions, from polar waters to remote tropical regions.
The refit prioritized functional reliability and expedition capability. A wood stove provides heating in severe climates, while her systems emphasize straightforward, proven technology over complexity. The layout and equipment reflect her mission as an exploration platform, with the spacious deck and accommodation plan designed to support extended offshore operations and self-sufficient cruising in remote areas.
