Read Lee's trip report!

Cyclone has long been a favourite with UK divers, the first real luxury liveaboard operated by Tornado Marine, she was voted “Liveaboard of the Year” in 2003. After a complete rebuild at the end of 2007 she has now returned to work on our Northern Red Sea routes out of Sharm.

Whilst she has retained her revolutionary sleek lines and distinctive appearance from the outside, regular guests would be hard pressed to recognise anything once onboard. In line with the latest boats in the fleet she now boasts an upstairs saloon complete with bar and plasma screen, a totally refitted restaurant with individual dining chairs, and an extensive sun deck complete with sun beds and Jacuzzi.

The work was not confined just to the interior layout. She has been fitted with new more powerful engines, giving her better cruising speed and comfort, and also new generators. In order to accommodate the changes her hull length has been increased and she now measures an impressive 34 metres overall. A true Red Sea classic liveaboard brought totally up to today’s high standards!

Why Cyclone?

A popular boat before her refit, Cyclone is back and better than ever!
