A 63 ft adventure yacht, capable of accommodating up to 8 guests in air conditioned comfort.
Stressbreaker is a British owned and operated classic 63ft clipper ketch, designed by Angus Primrose (of Gypsy Moth IV fame) and built by Rennie Brothers in Scotland.
Originally named Eloisa, her maiden voyage was to carry an expedition team to the Tierra del Fuego in Patagonia, crossing the Southern Oceans to reach her destination.
There are 4 guest cabins, three twins and one double. All cabins have fans and portholes and sleep 8 guests comfortably. The two showers and toilets have hot and cold water.
The saloon is spacious and air-conditioned, with TV, DVD and Hi-Fi system. The cabins and saloon are beautifully finished in teak and mahogany.
On deck, there is plenty of cover for protection from the sun. However, the large deck cushions can be moved for those who want to top up their tan!
