In the mid-80s, LA FENICE was purchased by the French Navy and began a new career as a training vessel for the Customs and Border Force. She was then bought by the photographer Peter Lindbergh in 2001, before returning to the UK in 2020. Fully refitted and refurbished between 2021 and 2023, she is now making her debut on the global charter market and will be exclusively available for charter with SuperYachtsMonaco.
