Broker's comments

A true no-nonsense Explorer Trawler built in the Netherlands. This long-range Bekebrede-designed trawler, featuring a Portuguese bridge deck, is purpose-built for serious cruising and offshore exploration. Having already proven her capabilities in distant waters, she offers a rare combination of seaworthiness, safety, and rugged reliability. Designed for long-term liveaboard comfort, she’s fully equipped for extended voyages. This vessel is all about function and endurance. Her impressive round-bilged hull speaks to her robust character and ocean-going pedigree.
