M/Y Grace: Coming July 2008 |
| |
M/Y Grace has journeyed the waters of this world under many names, but we have rechristened her with a name that takes her years back into her history; to the very best of her times. Named after her late owner, Her Serene Highness Princess Grace of Monaco, the name is a representation of her elegance, beauty and prestige. Grace is the ideal yacht for the traveler who seeks a true safari experience, complimented with excellent service, superb accommodations and excellent dining. With one naturalist guide for every 9 guests on a full ship, all who travel onboard this yacht will be part of a mission to bring to life the natural living legacy of the islands.z
