The M/V Le Draveur is a modern catamaran cruise ship, entirely built of aluminum, making it light, fast and easy to handle. The twin hulls ensure excellent stability and also facilitate navigation at higher speeds. In addition, the ship's shallow draught enables it to explore places such as the Saint-Maurice River, not normally navigable by conventional single-hull ships. Passengers experience a special closeness to the environment from aboard the ship.

There are two decks. The main deck has a heated cabin that can accommodate up to 74 passengers, with full bar service. There is outdoor seating in the bow and at the stern. The upper deck is very spacious, with its terrasse in the stern, partial glass roof and retractable awnings to ensure passenger comfort in any weather.

The M/V Le Draveur uses the latest high-tech navigational equipment (radar, sonar, electronic chart system with GPS and DGPS, automatic identification system, etc.) and is equipped with a waste-water recovery system that meets Environment Canada standards. The ship undergoes re-certification by the Canadian Coast Guard annually.
