Sagitta.

The Sagitta is a beautiful, spacious and luxurious 3 masted sailing vessel. It is 120 feel tall and 124 feel long. Built in Sweden, Sagitta carried 16 passengers on two decks with a crew of nine. There are 10 air conditioned cabins each with double lower and single upper berths. Each cabin has and " en suite" bath and hot shower. There is a library, comfortable conference room, dining room and deck salons.

"The food was excellent, the ship was beautiful and incredibly well-kept, the crew was first class all of the way and we completely enjoyed our tour. Our naturalist guide was excellent. Everything was incredible and we could not have enjoyed it more. I am thinking of booking a return trip with my mother on the Sagitta for next year." - Cindy Williams, Peru

The Sagitta continues to reflect the owners priorities of excellence: superb accommodations, yacht maintenance and safety equipment that meet the highest standards, ample open and shaded deck space, delicious Ecuadorian and international cuisine served in the salon or on deck, personal service on board by a professionally trained crew and guide.
