sail) built in Holland. She is comfortable and well laid-out,
offers good cabin and public-area accommodations and has all the
basic features that characterize the yachts we market.Sturdy,
stately and very comfortable, the motor-vessel SAMBA is a true
Dutch European classic and best in her class. A great ocean
vessel with a specially designed high bow, she provides safe
crossings and boasts a special stabilizing sail.

"We had a great trip. The crew and
accommodations on the Samba were terrific and the Galapagos was our
favorite part of our South American journey. The boat was clean and
well designed. The crew was terrific and attended to our needs. The
food was great and we felt very safe in the Captain's hands. Our
naturalist guide was extremely knowledgeable and brought a lot of
education on wildlife and the history of the Galapagos Islands, he was
great." - Kelly Ruebel, USA
