Introduction

For Sale: A Remarkable Vessel with a Rich Heritage

We are pleased to present a distinguished ship with an impressive legacy. Once the last Royal Mail Ship capable of carrying passengers, she served the islands of St. Helena from Cape Town, South Africa.

Following her official retirement from Royal Mail Service duties, the vessel underwent a comprehensive overhaul and was repurposed as the mothership for the Extreme E electric rally racing campaign.

Recently, she completed a successful cruise to the Red Sea, visiting Jeddah, and is currently located in the United Arab Emirates, seeking a visionary new owner to unlock her full potential.

This versatile ship is perfectly suited for a variety of applications, including cruising and supplying remote islands, serving as a research vessel, functioning as a corporate headquarters, or providing accommodation and support for superyachts. With an attractive price point and a high-quality interior, she represents an exceptional opportunity.
