Eclipse Launched 2004

This 23.5 Meter Aluminium Passenger Catamaran was launched in September 2004 and will be operated out of Port Douglas by Calypso Reef Charters conducting day trips to dive sites.  This vessel can carry up to 200 passengers plus 5 crew, however Eclipse will only carry 100 passengers plus crew to leave plenty of room to store dive gear etc and lie down and rest.

Cruising at 24 knots passengers will travel in comfort with areas on two decks and large lounging areas to stretch out and relax whilst traveling.

Access to the water for divers is provided by wide stairways leading down to the water. Note the Hydraulic Dive Platform at the aft of the vessel that can be lowered to launch the tender.
