It’s hard to look past elegant and spacious BALTO when considering an expedition yacht for your next adventure at the poles.
Spacious inside, but with its relatively compact build, BALTO is capable of maneuvering into spaces beyond the reach of larger vessels.
BALTO features a large restaurant-style open galley where you can watch the talented chefs prepare delicious and indulgent meals.
THE VESSEL
Formerly an ice breaker in the employ of the Finnish government, BALTO is a charter vessel that successfully balances a robust exterior with an elegant interior. Ice enforced along the full length of her hull, BALTO is capable of visiting remote anchorages in distant locations beyond the reach of larger vessels.
THE EXPERIENCE
Within her pragmatic and powerful exterior, BALTO offers a warm and inviting interior with space for up to 12 guests. One owner’s suite, four double suites, and two single rooms all come complete with ensuite bathrooms, and a sauna (with cold shower and changing room) keeps the chill at bay while icebergs drift by outside.
Its sumptuous dining room and spacious salon are paneled in glossy mahogany, with the latter offering a cozy burner stove. Relax in her plush bar or library, while her aft lounge and exterior deck spaces are roomy and ideal for photographing the drama of the winter landscape beyond.
