Héctor
"Tiño" Resnik from Puerto Madryn, Pablo Querol
and Matías Soriano from Trelew, they always been related
with the outdoor life style and nautical activities. Tiño
started at 18 on diving and boats. His first steps in the tourism
business were a job in the whale watching activity for a travel
agency and he moved to El Calafate in 1996 to work as the captain
of one of the cruises on the lake Argentino travelling the glaciers.
Tiño and Pablo always wanted to have their own proyect that's
why in December 1999 they started to design the Leal Cruise which
was built in San Fernando. During the first months they were travelling
periodically from Puerto Madryn and after those months Tiño
decided to stay in a house in the Delta together with the workers
in order to finish all the details of the cruise giving its actual
appearence. During this time Matías joined to this proyect.
In February of 2001, the ship was finished and they navigated to
Puerto Madryn starting the operation as expedition support and diving.
They decided to move to El Calafate by the end of 2003 to navigate
the lake Argentino with their so called program 'The Spirit of the
Glaciers'. With a redesigned interior, adapted to offer the best
confort and enough room for 14 passengers they started to operate
this program on September, 2004. This program offers an exclusive
way to enjoy the most of the glaciers on the Argentino lake, with
all the confort of the Leal Cruise. |
