The ship has been bought by GAP Adventures and is currently undergoing a major rebuilding and modernisation at Aker shipyards in Turku/Finland. Spitsbergen Travel has chartered the ship for the Spitsbergen voyages.

Once finished, the ship will have spacious and comfortable public rooms including a panorama lounge, an expedition lounge, restaurant (one sitting), library, bar, fitness room and sauna. All cabins will be outside with a window or porthole and private facilities. A fleet of ten Zodiacs is available for landings and excursions and stabilisers ensure a smooth journey.
