Was du tun wirst
From the moment you step aboard Crusader 1, you’ll notice the difference. At 55 feet (18 meters) long, this exceptionally stable, ex-commercial ocean vessel easily accommodates large groups—yet guest numbers are strictly capped at just 22–23 passengers. This means you enjoy a fraction of the capacity, giving you room to breathe, stretch out, and freely move around.
360° Unobstructed Sightlines:The vessel features a completely open deck layout with no glass windows, or high walls blocking your view. Wherever the action happens, you have a direct line of sight.
Guaranteed Rail Space: Forget shoulder-to-shoulder crowds fighting for photos. Every guest on board enjoys personal rail space for flawless photography and unobstructed views.
Premium Comfort & Relaxation: Choose your perfect view—relax in comfortable alfresco lounge seating, sit on the spacious walk-around deck, or sink into comfortable bow bean bags right up front where the action is.
Expert Local Crew: Guided by an experienced local crew, you’ll learn about humpback behaviour, migration patterns, and local marine life while staying safe and relaxed throughout the journey.
