Nemo III

Our vessel for the Galápagos cruise was the catamaran the Nemo III.

It held all thirteen passenger (about half were birders), two guides, and a crew of six. This is like a cruise ship at a smaller scale.

The boat can accommodate 16 passengers in eight cabins. The small galley produced three hearty meals a day which was much appreciated after a day of birding and island exploring.

This catamaran would be our home away from home for eight wonderful days.

Over our ten day cruise visiting nine of the Enchanted Islands I sketched from the Nemo III as well as a few sketches of the catamaran from the shore.

While anchored at Genovesa, I sketched our sister ship, the Nemo II.
