Arriving via the Little Russel from the north, the boutique liner Corinthian made for a unusual sight as she sailed to the anchorage, passing Roustel beacon. She is in local waters for two visits over the next week taking in all the major islands in the bailiwick of Guernsey. Sunday afternoon she makes the short journey to Herm.
This local fisherman has a close look at the Corinthian as he heads out for a day's fishing. The Corinthian was "re-launched" in 2009 and has 50 suites on board for its 100 guests. With her ice strengthened hull she can also offer cruises in Antacrtica, as well as the unique experiences that these small liners offer.
Despite the luxury that these guests are travelling in with on board gym, spa and beauty salon, it seems that the best way to get ashore is on the Zodiacs being prepared, as the Golden Spur waits for the disembarkation of the local pilot.
