The Baron Noir is a family owned and run vessel captained by Frank, a French seaman of vast experience and knowledge. The boat is generally of mixed nationality although heavily marketed in the French / Belgian market. She is of a good standard generally and well operated. The main master cabin is especially luxurious and spacious…for Sudan.

In 2005 Tornado Marine bought the well loved Red Sea liveaboard Royal Emperor and proceeded to upgrade her layout and equipment bringing her into line with the fleet’s standards. She is the first, high specification, steel boat to operate in the Sudan. Built in 1998 to RINA Class, her range and speed will allow us to open up new dive sites in the area.
