MS Le Laperouse (2018-built) is the first in a 6-ship series representing Ponant's newest Explorer-class megayachts - together with the sisterships Le Laperouse (2018), Le Champlain (2018), Le Bougainville (2019), Le Dumont d'Urville (2019, originally "Le Kerguelen"), Le Bellot (2020) and Jacques Cartier (2020, originally "Le Surville"). Each of these superyachts features an ice-strengthened hull, sleek-design superstructure, aft-located sun deck (with swimming pool) and retractable marina (for deploying water sports equipment), its own fleet of Zodiacs (large inflatable speedboats used for passenger tendering/landings in remote locations).

Le Laperouse cruise ship deck plan shows a total of 92 staterooms for 184 passengers (max capacity is 264) served by 112 crew-staff. The boat has 7 decks (6 passenger-accessible, 4 with cabins), 2 restaurants (indoor and outdoor), 4 lounges and bars, 1 swimming pool, wellness complex (Beauty Salon, Spa, Fitness), 1 boutique shop, 3 elevators (connecting all decks), aft Marina Platform (for watersports and Zodiac boat launching), 2 tender boats.
