Seabourn Odyssey 450 Godparents
July 21, 2008 by admin ·
Seabourn Odyssey is to be the newest addition to the Seabourn fleet in June 2009 and will have 450 godparents. Each passenger onboard Odyssey’s maiden voyage that is due to depart Venice on the 24th June 2009 will become godparents to the yacht.
“Everything we do at Seabourn is focused on our guests who, in a very real sense, are the reason this superb vessel is being built,” said Pamela C. Conover, president and CEO of The Yachts of Seabourn. “Those joining Odyssey’s maiden voyage will not only be treated like a celebrity, but will become a part of the vessel’s history, representing the many guests who have sailed with us in the past and those who will sail on her in the years to come.”
A ceremony will be held to christen the yacht before departing on a 14 day voyage to explore the Dalmatian coast, the Greek Isles and Turkey.
Seabourn Odyssey is the first of three new additions to the Seabourn fleet weighing in at 32,000 tons and is designed to accommodate up to 450 guests. Her maiden season will include a mixture of Mediterranean cruises and Caribbean cruises before embarking on Seabourn’s first-ever World Cruise scheduled for January 2010.

The Yachts of Seabourn held a ceremony for two new, luxury cruising yachts to be launched in 2010 and 2011. The two cruise ships mark the beginning of a three-vessel expansion project which will increase Seabourn’s capacity.
The level of enthusiasm we have seen from luxury cruisers for our new class of Seabourn yachts has frankly got us excited,” said Conover, “and so we decided to start these next two sisters off together, with a special sort of celebration.”
The first cruising yacht that will arrive in 2009 will be named Seabourn Odyssey and will carry just 450 guests keeping in line with their intimate cruising experience. Her maiden voyage will be in the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea regions in 2010.
