Silversea has taken delivery of Silver Ray, the second ship in its innovative Nova Class.
Jason Liberty, Royal Caribbean Group's president and CEO, celebrated the ship’s official handover at the Meyer Werft in Eemshaven, Netherlands, on Tuesday (14 May).
Maritime traditions included flag-changing and signing ceremonies, commemorative speeches, and a celebratory toast.
Silver Ray completed her technical and nautical sea trials in the North Sea on 8 May and now joins her sister, Silver Nova, as one of the most energy-efficient luxury expedition cruise ships ever built.
