Launched in 1990 and fitted out in May 1991 with state-of-the-art equipment — air conditioning, a fresh water plant, satellite navigation, autopilot, radar and echo sounder. She was first registered at Karlskrona.
She is used for luxury charter, exclusive events and adventure cruises. In 1991 she took third place in the Nioulargue veterans' regatta near St Tropez, and in 1992 made a promotional and charter tour of the Far East, repeating a historic voyage of a predecessor by carrying Hennessy cognac from France to China.
In 2016, under the flag of Malta, she joined Maybe Sailing and is offered for tall ship adventure holidays and special interest expeditions.
