Evolution: Description   back to top

 M/V EVOLUTION looks as boats did in the 1920's but brings a level of comfort and safety of 2004. Our clients will live an experience of close contact with nature on land and in the water... the Quasar Nautica way. The most important issue for us is to show our clients the Islands at their best. Our Nature is Galapagos...

She is a 210 ft /64 m. L.O.A. Cruise Ship that accommodates up to 32 passengers in 14 cabins, twin or double and 2 suites. Outfitted for individual passengers or charters, family departures and departures for the more active groups, she offers a mix of beautifully furnished salons, open decks and private areas for those looking for a close experience with the surrounding environment.

This vessel preserves the smaller boat atmosphere and attention to detail we pride ourselves in having on all our boats, with features such as an al-fresco dining area for all 32 passengers, a library/video room. Additionally, the yacht has such amenities as a small hot pool & bar, sunning deck, outside social/observation under a canopied roof deck & bar, air renewal system, boutique and infirmary with a MD on board at all times.
