Silversea finally got their hands on new ship Silver Muse after she was presented at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Genoa Sestri Ponente on Monday (3 April).
Guests attending the ceremony included Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco, Archbishop of Genoa, who blessed the ship, Giovanni Toti, governor of Liguria, Manfredi Lefebvre d’Ovidio, chairman of Silversea Cruises, and Giuseppe Bono, CEO of Fincantieri.
Silver Muse is being christened in Monaco on 19 April
At 40,700 gross tons and the capacity to accommodate 596 passengers on board, Silver Muse represents an evolution of Silver Spirit, delivered in 2009 by Fincantieri in Ancona.
Silver Muse, which is being christened on 19 April in Monaco and expands Silversea’s fleet to nine ships, offers guests the highest number of large suites (Silver, Royal, Grand and Owner’s) in the fleet, and the greatest number of connecting suites for families and friends.
In addition, she will offer more restaurants than any other ultra-luxury ship – eight venues – offering the finest and widest bespoke culinary experience at sea.
Roberto Martinoli, CEO at Silversea Cruises, said: “Today marks another milestone for Silversea, our guests and our colleagues as we celebrate our new flagship, Silver Muse, joining the fleet. The attention to detail throughout the ship is a reflection of our dedication, in conjunction with Fincantieri, to offer the ultimate luxury experience at sea.”
