Galápagos Passion | Yacht

The Galapagos Passion Yacht was a family boat, purchased in Italy by the reknown Galapagueño Fidi Angermeyer, upon arrival to Ecuador it was refit in the shipyards of Guayaquil to meet the exact needs for expedition cruising in the archipelago that inspired Charles Darwin. The boat reflects on his avidness of reconstructing and refurbishing classic luxury boats into mega touring yachts. The Passion liveaboard was nourished with his love for the enchanted islands and once again has re-established the Galapagos luxury cruising standards to a new high. Only the sky is the limit and Fidi keeps on reaching for it with healthy infatuation and his marine craftmanship. It is important to note that the Galapagos Passion was refurbished with infrastructure that takes into account nature conservation and caring for the unique wildlife of the islands, this is part of the Angermeyer family's DNA and for this reason the Passion Yacht supports the efforts from Wild Aid and other entities that protect this remote wilderness sanctuary in the Pacific Ocean.
