SILVERSEA’S Silver Spirit has emerged from drydock 15m longer following completion of a complex lengthening and refurbishment project.
The massive feat saw the ship split in two and lengthened with the insertion of a pre-built section, and renovated extensively (CW 13 Mar).
Silver Spirit’s 59-day drydock saw roughly 1,000 skilled workers committing approximately 450,000 hours to the project, which ran according to schedule.
The vessel is sporting a new look, along with a larger pool, increased dining options and upgraded public spaces.
Silver Spirit embarked upon her inaugural voyage from Civitavecchia (Rome) on 06 May, bound for Barcelona.
The itinerary is the first in a series of European voyages and in Sep Spirit will cross to North America, where she will remain until Nov.
