FleetPro Passenger Ship Management is to manage the technical and hotel operations for Haimark Line’s first ocean cruise ship from 3 May 2015.
Formerly known as the Sea Voyager, the vessel will undergo a US$3.5 million interior refurbishment before joining the Haimark fleet to sail itineraries along the North Atlantic Coast and in South and Central America.
Saint Laurent will sail various Northern Atlantic itineraries, which feature calls at destinations in coastal New England and the Canadian Maritimes, as well as transits through the Bay of Fundy, the St Lawrence Seaway, Georgian Bay and the Five Great Lakes.
The vessel will provide a series of ten-day itineraries including a ‘Canada’s Atlantic Coast and the St Lawrence Seaway’ cruise, a ‘The Five Great Lakes – A Freshwater Paradise’ voyage and a ‘Georgian Bay and The Five Great Lakes’ trip. In addition, the ship will sail a 13-day ‘Historic Coastal America’ voyage that traverses the Atlantic Seaboard and features calls at many historic US ports.
During her South and Central America season, the ship will sail from Nassau in the Bahamas, to Cartagena in Columbia, as well as cruises from Cartagena to San Jose in California, and San Jose to Lima, Peru. In addition to sailing through the Panama Canal, the ship will call at two UNESCO World Heritage Sites – Coiba Island and The Darian Jungle – enabling guests to enjoy land excursions in a fleet of newly purchased Zodiac Mock Fives. The shorex will be led an experienced expedition team.
