Silversea Cruises’ new ship Silver Dawn has been floated out at the Fincantieri shipyard in Ancona, Italy. Fitting of the vessel’s interiors will now begin, with delivery scheduled for November 2021.
“We proudly celebrate this major milestone in the build of our beautiful new Silver Dawn,” said Roberto Martinoli, president and CEO of Silversea Cruises. “Our long-term collaboration with Fincantieri continues to push boundaries in the ultra-luxury cruise industry, while the ongoing support and expertise of the Royal Caribbean Group has been invaluable to the ship’s build.”
Silver Dawn is the third ship in the Muse-class series, following her sister ships Silver Muse and Silver Moon. She will accommodate 596 guests in 298 ocean-view suites, 96 per cent of which will have a private veranda.
“Based on the very successful design of Silver Muse, Silver Dawn is the fourth ship we will have built for Silversea,” said Luigi Matarazzo, general manager of the merchant ships division at Fincantieri. “For a shipbuilder there can be no better acknowledgement than the one of a demanding and prestigious owner who welcomes innovation with enthusiasm. We are therefore extremely proud to celebrate the launch of this ship.”
