New expedition ship Seabourn Pursuit unveiled
Luxury line Seabourn has taken delivery of its second expedition ship, Seabourn Pursuit.
It was handed over in an official ceremony at the T. Mariotti shipyard in Genoa.
Seabourn Pursuit is the company’s second purpose-built, ultra-luxury expedition ship.
Seabourn Pursuit has the same luxury ‘yacht like’ small ship experience.
The ship will have a 24-person expedition team of scientists, scholars, naturalists, and more.
It is designed and built for remote environments and built to PC6 Polar Class standards.
Pursuit has nearly 30,000 square feet of deck space with indoor and outdoor guest areas boasting nearly 270-degree views.
Seabourn Pursuit features eight dining venues and luxury all-suite accommodations, including two-level Wintergarden suites.
“Seabourn Pursuit raises the bar for ultra-luxury expedition travel,” said Natalya Leahy, Seabourn President.
It comes one year after the delivery of Seabourn Venture.
Seabourn Pursuit is scheduled to enter service August 12, 2023.
The ship will sail five voyages in the Mediterranean before two voyages across the Atlantic and through the Caribbean.
On October 10, 2023, the ship will arrive in Barbados to begin its expedition journeys.
Expeditions will explore coastal South America, the Amazon, and Antarctica into late March 2024.
Following its inaugural Antarctic season, the ship will head across to the islands of the South Pacific and eventually to Australia.
There, it will offer Seabourn’s first Kimberley region cruises in the Northern Territory and Western Australia.
