It is plain to see that the SS Delphine was built in 1921. She is registered as a passenger ship and from bow to stern is steeped in luxurious old-world elegance.

The Main Deck is built for relaxation. On the Promenade Deck there is al fresco dining area for 26 guests and wicker chairs that evoke the age of luxury liners. The Boat Deck is all modern and contemporary style with a bar, jacuzzi, and a sunbathing and lounge area.

Edwardian splendor abounds  the lounges, cabins and suites. Lush mahogany wood paneling, leather sofas and beveled-glass windows all grace the entire luxury yacht.

After so much history it would be hard to imagine present day life aboard the elegant yacht. But after being recommissioned in 2008, the SS Delphine had an injection of modern life including a  spa and water sports equipment, so there is no lack of  hi-tech life on this charter yacht.

The Delphine is based year-round in the Port of Monaco.
