Powered by a 380hp MAN engine she can comfortably cruise at 10-12 knots, essential for the distances she travels on her 7-14 day cruises. All the interior rooms are air-conditioned and lavishly fitted out, but the traditional feel is retained with hardwoods decking and walls.

Accomodation is for 16 guests; there are 6 standard twin/double cabins on the lower deck, each with en suite bathrooms and individual air-conditioning controls and 2 deluxe double cabins on the main deck, again with en suites and nice picture windows. All the cabins have TV, DVD player and small desks at which you can write or tinker with your digital images! A crew of 12 looks after your every need!

The saloon is on the main deck, and it is here you can enjoy the delicious food served from the well equipped galley, or relax and chat with new found friends. A small library is available, with a variety of fish identification books and some light reading. For those who wish to soak up the sun, Seahorse has plenty of open and shaded decks upon which to work on their tan or admire the majestic views as the boat moves from dive site to dive site.
