The sleek twin-hulled MONIQUE will launch in 2026 and represents a fresh addition to the Galápagos charter scene, combining barefoot elegance with eco‑conscious design. Its intimate scale, roomy suites and sustainable technologies underscore a new benchmark for refined, responsible expeditions.
Catamaran MONIQUE – ready to host exploration in the Galápagos
A modern 34m (11’4″) motor‑catamaran, MONIQUE features a structure that prioritises stability and generous internal volume. Its form was shaped by input from shipwrights, naturalist guides, tour experts and guests to ensure both aesthetic sophistication and practical performance. Sustainability is central to the design, with advanced solar panels and lithium battery systems substantially reducing the carbon footprint.
Living Spaces
MONIQUE offers three thoughtfully designed decks to enrich onboard comfort. The Main Deck includes an indoor lounge and dining area with panoramic windows. The Upper Deck provides a shaded observation terrace and sun deck for forward viewing. The crowning glory is the Sky Deck which combines al‑fresco dining, a bar, leisure seating and a whirlpool spa to create serene relaxation spaces.
