The 16-passenger M/S Monserrat is named after the Virgin of Montserrat, the patroness of Catalonia in Spain. For centuries, sailors worldwide have adopted her as their loyal companion and have revered her as their protector through their journeys at sea. She proudly carries her name as an amulet for both sailors and guests.
