- Intercom telephones in every room and cabin to reach all other cabins as well as room service!
- Satellite telephone with fax and computer/email hook ups!
Laundry service.
- Individual stereo control in all rooms and cabins.
- The entire boat is completely furnished in lavish mahogany and marble.
Dining room service with china and crystal on Burl Mahogany inlaid dining room tables!
- Unbelievable food and service that will equal or exceed the finest restaurant anywhere. American, French, Japanese or Brazilian cuisine available!

- Outside area with bar and television and recliners.
- The finest new American bass boats and motors, complete with onboard marine radios and GPS from Lowrance electronics!

- Two Master Suites with king size bed, stereo, walk in closets and Master Baths with private Jacuzzi's (yes you read it right).
I could go on and on!
The Santana organization owns Five Yachts of this caliber which we also represent. We will be expanding our Eco-tourism adventure program as well on The Santana III with a four night/three day excursion (schedule available).
This yacht "that has no competition".
To visit Brazil now with another operation is just plain foolish.
THE STAFF
Our on-board manager , also an experienced and trained naturalist, will help you plan your day's fishing or exploring, act as a translator, give fishing tips/instructions, serve as host and "cruise director", and otherwise try his best to ensure your trip is a safe, successful and unforgettable one.
The Captain and marine crew , all of whom have several years experience aboard this vessel in the Amazon region, will safely navigate your "home away from home" to the best fishing grounds available regardless of the time of year, often covering several hundred miles in search of optimal fishing during your week's stay aboard. You may even visit the Captain on the bridge while the boat is underway and take a turn at the wheel if you like (closely supervised, of course).
The chef, with his kitchen and service staff, will work to create exciting, delicious and visually appealing meals and appetizers of exotic international and regional cuisine, especially tailored for the American palate. Your table fare will include tropical fruits (some of the almost 300 fruits native to the Amazon), fresh baked breads, exotic Amazon fish (such as the fruit eating Tambaqui and the prehistoric relic -ancient, but delicious - Pirarucu), tender and delicious cuts of excellent Brazilian beef, and delicious regional and international desserts tempting even to dieters.
The native guide staff will amaze you with their abilities and service on a daily basis. These guys not only know how to find fish, but will do whatever it takes to make your experience as comfortable and effortless as possible. They will rig your gear, net your fish, help you handle it for photos, release your fish safely, untangle "bird's nests" in your reel, climb trees to retrieve snagged lures, and even dive in the water to retrieve your fish, a plug or dropped piece of gear. Their knowledge of the region is unmatched, many having begun to learn the rivers and lagoons paddling dug out canoes soon after they could walk. For the people who live on its banks, the river is life and our guides have an intimate knowledge and relationship with it.
This hand picked team is second to none in the Amazon and they work together (more like a big family as several guests have noted) to make every trip the best it can be. You will be infected by their characteristically Brazilian friendliness and happy upbeat outlook on life (The Brazilian staff have said that even the expatriate American on-board manager is now more Brazilian than he is American.) and leave the Amazon Castaway wanting to return for more, the sooner the better.
