Ferox

The Ferox is not your typical liveaboard. Built with an 11mm steel hull this former ice class Swedish Navy Ship (Mine Layer) is quite possibly the most robust liveaboard on the water. Selected after a worldwide search and immediately put to the test during her 7000 nautical mile voyage from Sweden to Colombia, the Ferox has proven her capabilities.

Powered by twin Scania engines she is reliable as well as environmentally friendly due to her low fuel consumption. Two generators ensure there is plenty of power aboard. The Ferox is also one of the few liveaboards in the world with its own waste water treatment plant (MSD). The MSD was not installed due to regulations, but rather our commitment to minimize impact to the marine environment. Extensive fire fighting and life saving equipment can be found onboard including a fixed fire fighting system for her engine space that can be operated remotely in a severe engine fire.
