The expedition superyacht Asteria has arrived at the docks in Falmouth from London.
Launched in Greece in 1970 as the salvage tug Asteri, she was converted into a luxury superyacht during 2002 in New Zealand.
The 49m long Asteria has a great number of sea miles under her keel with charters taking her around the globe.
The vessel has ventured to both both polar regions and done the Northwest Passage.
She has six guest cabins with a private master forward on the main deck.
Asteria can carry a large number of toys, including large tenders, RIBs, jet skis and a helicopter.
