Delphia 40
Arctic Sky
Arctic Sky is a Delphia 40, the smaller end of the fleet. She is stable, simple and well suited to groups of up to six who want a compact boat and short daily passages in the fjords around Tromsø. Whole boat, with skipper.

Specifications
Every berth is in a cabin; none are convertible saloon berths. On a skippered voyage the crew occupy one cabin and guests share two to a cabin. Arctic Sky is chartered whole boat; we do not sell individual berths or cabins.

Life on board
Below deck, the saloon is the centre of the boat. It is heated, dry and warm enough to sit in base layers while the outside temperature is below freezing. Wet gear lives forward and stays out of the living space.
Meals are cooked on board and eaten together around one table. Breakfast is early on active days and slower on passage days. There is no service hierarchy on Arctic Sky: the crew sail and cook, and guests help when they want to.
Nights are quiet. At anchor there is no engine noise, and in most cases no other boat within sight. In winter the cabin lights go down early so the sky outside stays readable; in summer you learn to sleep in daylight.
A day on board settles into a rhythm within about 48 hours. Sail, land, walk or ski or watch, return, eat, sleep. That rhythm is most of what guests describe when they talk about the trip afterwards.
Where she sails
Arctic Sky sails from Tromsø and Harstad. Deployment varies by season, so we confirm the boat when we shape your proposal.
