GRACE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The iconic yacht Grace has just undergone extensive interior and technical upgrades to optimize the sailing experience, maximize comfort and elevate her contemporary aesthetic. In collaboration with a renowned South American design firm, this refit has revealed a yacht that is nothing short of radiant and remarkable, like Grace Kelly herself.
Since her royal beginnings, our award-winning Grace yacht has been revamped from stem to stern and continues to be upgraded with features ideal for the Galapagos Islands. Refined yet adventurous and agile, it's no wonder Princess Grace Kelly chose this ship for her honeymoon.
Guests sailing aboard the new yacht will experience the islands as Darwin did in the past: personally and privately, but with the added distinction, comfort and elegance of today. This luxurious 16-guest yacht offers expanded deck space, outriggers for smooth cruising, naturalist guides with over 15 years of experience, and itineraries designed for maximum wildlife encounters.
We can't wait to welcome her aboard the new Grace for the trip of a lifetime for her.
