Clients to be godparents aboard Seabourn launch

21-Aug-08 Christy Wyatt

All clients booking Seabourn Odyssey's maiden voyage in June 2009 will become godparents of the luxury yacht.

Passengers aboard the voyage, scheduled to depart Venice, Italy, will have their names engraved on a plaque to be displayed on board.
The ship will be christened during an early-evening ceremony before departing for a 14-day voyage featuring the Dalmatian coast, the Greek Isles, and Turkey.
"Those joining Odyssey's maiden voyage will not only be treated like a celebrity, but will become a part of the vessel's history, representing the many guests who have sailed with us in the past and those who will sail on her in the years to come," said Pamela C. Conover, president and CEO of The Yachts of Seabourn.
Seabourn Odyssey is the first of three new builds to be introduced by the cruise line.
The 32,000-ton yacht will accommodate 450 guests in all-suite accommodation.
It will feature five dining options, five lounges and bars, a pool and sunbathing area, and a two-deck, indoor/outdoor spa facility.
It will embark on Seabourn's first-ever World Cruise in 2010.
