History of the Vessel
The story of Stella Oceana begins with the 1964 Swedish tanker Anna Marie of Donsö, built by Trellevarvet in Kållandsö, Sweden, for the Tarntank Rederi AB fleet.
In 1988, the original tanker was completely disassembled, with only her 40-ton keel preserved. From this foundation, a brand-new exclusive motor sailer was built — inspired by the classic look and character of the 1964 ship, but created as an entirely new vessel. After two and a half years of craftsmanship, she was completed and ready to sail in 1991.
She later became Ann-Mari of Svendborg, Denmark, before taking the name Stella Oceana of Tromsø, Norway in 2019.
Stella Oceana means “star of the ocean” — representing the freedom to explore our blue planet from the sea itself: a world mostly covered by ocean. More than a vessel, Stella Oceana carries the spirit of exploration — the ocean as our path, the planet as our home, and the journey as a deeper connection to the blue world we share.
