> Mary Anne
The Mary Anne is the most befitting of Galapagos boats for exploring in Darwin's wake.
Built in 1997 at over 200 feet in length, this spectacular three-masted Barquentine with
square rigged foremast is the largest and most spacious motorized sailing yacht in the
Galapagos; she offers the most exciting Galapagos adventure experience for sailing ship
aficionados. When wind conditions permit, the professional crew unfurls her 14 sails -
nearly 1000 square meters of canvas- for a spectacular Galapagos adventure! Ample spaces
and numerous activities are offered on three decks. The Sun Deck is where the bridge,
open-air dining area with bar, and kayaks are located, with ample chairs for sunning or
Galapagos wildlife observation under shade. On the Main Deck is located the dining room,
wood-paneled lounge with bar, galley, large library and presentation room with DVD and
TV for daily briefings, lectures and evening activities. All staterooms are located on
the Cabin Deck level.

The salon offers comfortable booth seating for dining and discussing the day's Galapagos adventures with fellow travelers. |
Capacity / Accommodations:
The Mary Anne is built with 14 double cabins to carry 28 passengers, but due to Galapagos
tourism management regulations she is only licensed to carry 16 guests so there is plenty
of space on board! All staterooms have private bath with hot shower, climate controls,
and storage area.
