Seabourn's Dream Comes to Fruition; Takes Delivery of Quest

A dream has become a reality for Seabourn. Years ago, Seabourn decided to build a trio of new ships...450-passenger, all-suite mega-yachts that would sail the globe offering the same exceptional service as was available on the line's smaller ships (Legend, Pride, and Spirit).

Odyssey launched in June 2009, Sojourn premiered the following summer, and Seabourn just took delivery of Quest at the T. Mariotti shipyard in Genoa, Italy.

Seabourn is known for throwing amazing christening celebrations. Barcelona is the location of Quest's upcoming sunset ceremony on June 20th and actress Blythe Danner will serve as godmother. After the ceremony, the ship will depart on a 14-night maiden voyage to Athens, stopping at idyllic seaside villages in France, Italy, Greece, and Turkey.

According to Richard Meadows, Seabourn's President, "We are very pleased and excited to take delivery of Seabourn Quest. She is a beautiful vessel, and I have no doubt she will earn as much praise from the experts, and as much affection from our guests as her two sister-ships.  Her officers, staff and crew are ready to welcome travelers on board to experience Seabourn-style cruising on our newest ship."

Congratulations to everyone at Seabourn and T. Mariotti who worked so hard to bring this dream to fruition! Seabourn Odyssey is one of our favorite ships and we hope to sail aboard Quest soon!
