Steber International has just launched its fourth and largest vessel for the Fregate Island Resort in the Seychelles archipelago. We reported on this Steber 52 in build last year.
The multi-million dollar Steber 5200 (52ft) will be used for a variety of resort activities covering extended excursions, game fishing and diving.
Features include two sleeping cabins, two lounge areas, galley, two bathrooms, inflatable dinghy and crane. Additional on-deck seating is suitable for scenic tours and guest transfers from the mainland to Fregate Island and return.
The 5200 will join the fleet of three other vessels, the first of which was delivered back in 1999.
In 2016, Fregate Island took delivery of a Steber 3800 (38ft), which is successfully being used to transfer clients between the island and mainland and will now expand into other resort activities.
Unlike the majority of fibreglass-manufactured 'white' boats, the hulls of the Fregate Island fleet vessels are finished in a unique Jade Mist Green colour.
If you feel like visiting the Seychelles archipelago, it's located in the Indian Ocean, north East of Madagascar, about 1600km east of Kenya. The archipelago consists of 115 islands.
The vessel will be delivered at the end of February following sea trials and final fitout.
