Fondly known as ‘Ambassador’ and ‘Gentleman of the Seas’, the naval vessel docked at Port Rashid on November 8. Cuauhtémoc has sailed 775,000 miles, and completed more than 6,000 trips over 39 years, circumventing the world four times. The expedition is named ‘Expo 2020 Dubai’ and has a crew of 258.
