M/V
Philkade. Luxury Liveaboard Cruising at Its Finest! |
The
29-meter M/V Philkade, launched in 2002, has been designed
specifically for luxury liveaboard diving cruises. Our 5-star
comfort for a limited number provide the answer for those
tired compromising between exceptional diving and discomfort
and those who prefer diving amidst a school of fish rather
than school of divers.
The
three decks plus fly bridge include 6 spacious guest cabins,
1 master, 4 doubles and 1 triple, all meticulously appointed,
including bathroom, and air conditioned. The 70 m2 'mega
yacht' dining room and salon is furnished in teak, leather
and granite and includes a bar and home theater. The sunbath
platform and canopied fly bridge are perfect for either
catching some rays or watching the sunset with your favorite
cocktail.
Built
to meet all international standards, M/V Philkade is equipped
with the latest electronics and safety equipment and is
capable of transoceanic cruises.
