After years of patrolling, chasing submarines, research & support work the "old lady" is finally retired. Well, not really but as private yacht things are slowing down and everything, except maintenance, gets more relaxed. Since 2014 she is used as excursion vessel for family and friends, giving everybody on board an idea of how seafaring was decades ago. A really unique experience which, in combination with breathtaking solitary vastness of panamenian & colombian archipelagos, makes you dream about the "good old times".
