Island Escape Cruises are committed to preserving the beautiful waters in which they are travelling. The yacht goes above and beyond the future global standards for emission, but they wanted to go a little further.
They have installed an advanced wastewater treatment system onboard enabling the ship to have zero impact in the sensitive areas where they are exploring. The yacht complies with the latest SOLAS rules and is designed and certified as an ocean-going ship to travel to all corners of the world. For further passenger comfort she is fitted with state-of-the-art stabilisers to minimise sea conditions. Fuel-efficient and quiet diesel-electric propulsion, and catalytic invertors reduce NOX emissions to the air by up to 90%. Further, they have installed a heat recovery system that uses heat from the engines to make sufficient hot water for showers and the galley. To protect the seabed, they fitted a dynamic positioning system, which allows them to be stationary in areas without the use of anchors that would damage the seabed.
The ‘Island Escape’ will set new cruising standards, making her one of safest, most environmentally friendly and comfortable yachts of her class. With just a maximum of 32 guests and 14 crew, they look forward to providing exceptional cruising in some of the most amazing areas in Australia. schedule.
