Hello Carol, Thank you for your review. Every two years, Quasar completely updates its yachts during dry docks so our guests get to experience renewed classic vessels. We do these updates while always maintaining that classic yacht romance and charm that as you pointed out, newer yachts will never have. This adds a very special touch to our Galapagos adventures and our Guests never fail to mention this to our onboard staff at the end of their trips. This Fall (2022) Quasar is drydocking the Grace, replacing her engines and completely updating her interior with new bathrooms, floors, ceilings, new beds, etc. This will be done by one of Chile's finest interior designers. In short, she will be a totally renewed historic vessel that, in practical terms, is entirely new yet still maintains that unique feeling of having once been the Royal Yacht of Monaco. Thank you once again for choosing Quasar. Sincerely, ~ The Quasar Customer Service Team

“Yes, it is an older ship that has been retrofitted and may not meet everyone's expectations of a contemporary yacht. That being said it is a wonderful ship with timeliness and character newer yachts will never have. I simply loved her and thought the crew was very welcoming and attentive. Of special note were the fantastic meals served daily, fresh tasty and presented wonderfully.”

“Almost everything re the Grace yatch was amazing. However I think that the pricing of alcoholic beverages on-board was simply ridiculous.”
