Genoa June 28th 2022 -Seabourn, the ultra-luxury ocean and expedition cruise line, took delivery of its first expedition ship, Seabourn Venture, today during an official handover maritime ceremony at the T. Mariotti shipyard in Genoa, Italy. Seabourn Venture is the first of the line’s two purpose-built, ultra-luxury expedition ships and the newest expedition ship in the industry.
“Today is so incredibly special and important as we take ownership of the world’s finest luxury expedition ship and welcome Seabourn Venture to the Seabourn family,” said Seabourn President Josh Leibowitz. “The Mariotti team has done a wonderful job in the building of the ship and bringing Adam Tihany’s stunning design vision to life. Seabourn Venture will raise the bar in ultra-luxury expedition travel, and we look forward to introducing her to the world as she sets sails to explore the world.”
“Someone well known in the Cruise Industry said “She is not another expedition ship or a luxury cruise ship. She is Seabourn Venture and when she begins sailing next month she will be the world finest luxury expedition ship”. I totally agree with him. She is the fairest one of all, ice class PC6 certified to call polar routes” said Marco Ghiglione managing director of T. Mariotti. “Since we started building Seabourn Venture the world has literally changed before our eyes, requiring unespected efforts. The great dedication and passion of the Team made by T.Mariotti and subcontractors with Seabourn has been the key to success”.
Seabourn Venture has been designed and built for diverse environments to PC6 Polar Class standards and will include a plethora of modern hardware and technology that will extend the ships global deployment and capabilities. The ship will provide the same luxury small-ship experience with the addition of world-class equipment that allows the line to offer its widest range of expedition activities led by an expert 26-person team of scientists, scholars, naturalists, and more. The ships will offer complimentary Seabourn Expedition offerings such as Zodiac cruises, hikes, nature walks, scuba diving, and snorkeling, as well as additional curated complimentary excursions. In addition, the ships will offer optional shore excursions and optional Seabourn Expeditions with kayaking and two custom-built submersibles at select destinations. These experiences will provide close-up views of wildlife and natural scenery, as well as unforgettable intimacy with the underwater wonders of the ocean.
