S/v Rembrandt van Rijn
S/V 'Rembrandt Van Rijn' was built as a herring lugger early last century. She was rebuilt as a three-mast passenger sailing schooner in the Netherlands in 1994 and sailed in Spitsbergen (1994 – 1996) and in Galápagos (1998 - 2001). The vessel underwent a complete rebuilding and refurbishment program which was completed this year. The communication and navigation equipment has been completely renewed according to the latest SOLAS regulations.
The Rembrandt van Rijn measures 56 meters in length (168 ft.), 7 meters in width and has a draft of 2.5 meters. The maximum speed on engines is 9 knots. It has an experienced crew of 7 persons on board including 2 tour guides.
The ship is well suited for expedition cruising among small islands and has good open deck viewing areas whether running on engines or under sail. The two inflatable rubber crafts (zodiacs) enable landing and wildlife viewing opportunities in otherwise inaccessible areas.
