THE HANGAR
An industry first, this enclosed in-ship marina
permits the launch of Special Operations Boats
through the ship's slipway, in addition to the side
doors on Deck A. The Hangar can be used for the
embarkation of Special Operation Boats when
weather and other conditions allow. Guests can
observe activity in The Hangar from windows on
Deck 1, watching small boat maintenance and
biosecurity protocols. This space also features
FerryBoxes, instruments continuously collecting
and displaying data on water quality, oxygen
content, plankton composition and more.
"e ship's Hangar full of toys gives passengers a glimpse
of what to expect wherever they sail with the ship.
It currently houses 16 kayaks, 17 zodiacs, two special
operations boats, and two yellow submarines."
