Fragata Built in 1994 in Ecuador's primary port city of Guayaquil, the majestic seventy-five-foot Fragata comfortably accommodates sixteen passengers in nine striking teakwood cabins. All but two air-conditioned rooms have twin beds have a lower and upper berth; two cabins feature double beds. Each cabin has a vanity, locker and full bath with a hot shower. The Fragata was renovated in 2002, receiving the modern updates of a classic cruise ship.
