Seabourn to sell off three ships
Seabourn has announced the sale of the line’s original three vessels Seabourn Pride, Seabourn Spirit and Seabourn Legend to Xanterra Parks & Resorts, owner of Windstar Cruises.
There will be no disruption in service or changes in operations on any currently published Seabourn voyages.
Seabourn Pride will be transferred after its published schedule ends in April 2014. The Seabourn Spirit and Seabourn Legend will be transferred to Windstar in April 2015 and May 2015, respectively.
President Richard Meadows said together with Seabourn’s three newest vessels, Seabourn Odyssey, Seabourn Sojourn, and Seabourn Quest, "we intend to add a fourth ship of similar design", and the company is in discussions with shipbuilders with an order likely to be announced within the current fiscal year.
