Description
CDT FOURCAULT is a 56m Explorer Steel Motor Yacht launched in 1968 by a major Belgian shipyard and refitted in 2009. CDT FOURCAULT is based in northern Europe and available for charter worldwide. Pricing is from € 52,000 per week with accommodation for up to 57 guests (and 6 crew).
CDT FOURCAULT Explorer Motor Yacht was originally built as a pilot vessel and after serving as such for several years she was bought by the Belgian Navy for use as a training vessel.
After being laid up in the port of Antwerp, the ship was brought back into service in 2000 to embark on a number of significant search & rescue, salvage, and dive expeditions.
CDT FOURCAULT went on a thrilling expedition in search of 1,000 bottles of champagne that have been lying on the seabed for over 200 years. Now that’s what you call vintage!
Aside from searching for lost treasures, CDT FOURCAULT has been involved in activities ranging from diving missions to salvage expeditions, such as the Costa Concordia cruise ship that capsized and sank in 2012, and expeditions to create awareness for environmental issues.
Hosting up to 50 people on board for up to 45 days at a time, taking researchers, dive enthusiasts and wildlife conservationists all over the world, These trips require highly specialized knowledge and great flexibility from our very professional crew and suppliers, a reason why CDT FOURCAULT chose to partner with Castor Marine.
