Our boat, inspired by the resilient Toroa, excels in Aotearoa's subantarctic islands. The Toroa vessel is tailored for research and adventure along the rugged South Pacific coastlines. The vessel's open decks serve diverse purposes, while cabins accommodate 4-8 crew members with self-contained facilities.
