Sailing aboard the M/Y Grace, I see before my eyes the story of how life triumphed in the unforgiving Galapagos, some 1000 km off Ecuador’s coast, right on the Equator. The yacht cruises the archipelago with unparalleled style. She was Grace Kelly’s honeymoon yacht and remains true to her namesake. The lines she carves in the water evoke the journeys of another legendary vessel: The Beagle.
