Seabourn Cruise Line
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seabourn Cruise Line is an ultra luxury cruise line. The line operates all around the world, from short seven day Caribbean cruises to exotic 100+ day cruises around the world. It is owned by Carnival Corporation, part of the World's Leading Cruise Lines marketing group. Passengers range in ages from the 40s to the 60s, but kids are still welcomed.
Their ships are known as the Yachts of Seabourn and are small enough to fit in many exotic ports around the world that large cruise ships can't reach. All cabins are suites and are well equipped with some of the best amenities available at sea. All have designer soaps, flat screen televisions, DVD players, and Bose Wave sound systems.
[edit] The Fleet
The Fleet consist of three identical vessels. Each weigh in at 10,000 tons, and all were built during the late 1980s and early 1990s
In late October 2006, Seabourn announced that they had ordered two 32,000 ton luxury cruise ships from Genoa's T. Mariotti S.p.A. shipyard. The two ships, which are unnamed are predicted to enter service in 2009 and 2010, will have a maximum passenger capacity of 500 guests, quartered in 255 suite cabins, 90% of which will have a balcony. The two 650 foot vessels are predicted to cost US$250 million each. The ships also are expected to have about 9 decks, which is more than any of Seabourn's previous ships.[1]
