TRUE NORTH has completed a major makeover for both their small ships, True North and True North II – preparing both vessels for another year of adventures around Australia, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea.Guests joining the much anticipated 2024 Kimberley season will be the first to experience one of the more significant changes from the refit – the new Ocean Premium Cabin class, available on True North. Responding to guests’ calls for more flexible and adaptable room settings, the new cabin class offers a choice of a twin share or double bed layout.“As always, our focus remains on providing once-in-a-lifetime adventures for those joining us aboard True North or True North II. While guests will typically be spending the majority of their time exploring off the vessels – whether this be snorkelling, fishing or enjoying a heli-picnic – we want to ensure that their time on deck or recharging in their cabins is in the most relaxing environment possible’ said Chad Avenell, Director, TRUE NORTH.

The renovations were led by Australian-owned and operated shipbuilder, Echo Yachts. Aside from True North’s II new cabin class, the refit included an overhaul and rebuild of the gearboxes, with both generators receiving a top-end rebuild. Externally, both vessels received new paint jobs and crane overhauling.Other innovations for the 2024 season include a move to fully paperless for chart navigation – allowing for greater precision, efficiency and consistency whilst navigating through shallow waters and remote destinations.
