Spirit Of Columbia

The Spirit of Columbia is one of the top cruise ships of its kind on the seas. It provides wonderful cruising adventures for all of its guests. Let's take a closer look at this vessel.

About the Spirit Of Columbia
The current Spirit of Columbia was put into service in 1995 (the previous version, which has since been retired, was put into service in 1979). This is a 98 ton, small cruise liner. It is designed to house and entertain 78 passengers and is manned by a crew of 28.

It is 143 feet in length and measures 28 feet wide, with four decks. This is a boat design geared for sightseeing. It has the ability to get closer to interesting spots than a bigger ocean liner.

When you're choosing what ship to take, here is what I suggest you examine. Do you want the scenery to be a backdrop to your experience? Are you in the mood to sightsee, or are you in the mood for hands on adventuring? If what you want to really see nature with the intimacy of an adenturer cruise, a trip aboard the Columbia might be right for you.
