Captain David Marionneau, Ponant’s Director of Marine Operations Asia Pacific, said: “We took PASPALEY PEARL through all her required operational and safety manoeuvres. The sea trials were a resounding success.”

PASPALEY PEARL, originally launched late 2021, is due to undergo a multi-million-dollar refit and will emerge with refreshed livery, newly designed interiors and expansive open decks.”

The ship has capacity for 30 guests and 21 crew, including four expedition guides.
