Yacht Description
An actual icebreaker. ARGUS is a 224–225ft expedition yacht built in 1971 by Svendborg Skibsvaerft, originally constructed as an Arctic icebreaker. If your shortlist needs “serious ship” rather than “floating lounge,” this is the one.
Big group, simple. She sleeps 12 guests, with data showing a 12-cabin setup overall (including singles) and another source listing 4 cabins (3 doubles and 1 twin). Cabin layouts vary by configuration, so this is a yacht to match to your group early. Practical.
Deck time wins. There is a deck Jacuzzi for post-excursion warm-ups and a BBQ for low-effort outdoor meals. Short pause. Then back outside.
Get off the boat. Kayaks and paddleboards are on board for quieter water time, plus two tenders including a 5.85m Zodiac for getting guests ashore and keeping days moving. Wi‑Fi is also listed throughout the vessel when you need to check in, then disappear again.
