HURRICANE was launched in May 2004. She is the latest and most advanced Red Sea Liveaboard and will surely remain the market leader for many years to come. Her 36m steel construction gives a large and stable platform from which to explore the whole of the Egyptian Red Sea.

There has been no compromise when it comes to providing comfort for our guests. All cabins have en suite bathrooms, A/C with individual controls and a unique circulating fresh air system. Lighting and music are controlled from the bedside and there is also a small fridge. Each cabin also has a safety deposit box.

The restaurant is situated on the main deck and provides a spacious and tasteful environment to enjoy the excellent cuisine. Above the restaurant on the bridge deck is the saloon and bar, a comfortable relaxation area with stereo, CD/DVD and a plasma screen for viewing the days digital shots and video footage or taking in a movie. The bar has wine and a selection of spirits and cocktails. The cocktail deck provides relaxation in or out of the sun, and for those real sun worshippers there are several sun decks.

The dive deck is fully equipped to cater for all diving needs, scuba or technical, open circuit or re-breathers, photo or video.

Also guests will be able to be reached, if required, by their home or office. Each guest will then have their own account and will be invoiced at the end of the trip. Also Tornado Marine operations will be able to determine the exact location of Hurricane at anytime.

There are two spacious 6m RIBs with protected drives and centre consoles and a smaller inflatable for use by the crew.

Onboard Medical Oxygen Supply Systems are now approved by London Hyperbaric Medicine, who have also trained dive staff in Advanced Life Support and First aid. Each vessel is now equipped with hand held radios to enable communication between the main boat and all of the dive tenders.
