Ocean Victory at the CMHI yard.

Launching the Ocean Victory

Ocean Victory, ship number three in the SunStone Ships' INFINITY series, had her launching ceremony 16 March at the CMHI Haimen yard. She is the second exploration cruise vessel built at the yard featured with the ULSTEIN X-BOW®. Ulstein Design & Solutions is providing the design and equipment package to this project.

Although being one of the sister vessels to the 'Greg Mortimer', the first vessel in the INFINITY series, the 'Ocean Victory' differs from the 'Greg Mortimer' in several ways, reflecting the flexibility of the design series.
 

The 104.4m long vessel sports the capacity for 200 passengers in 93 suites, 68 with balconies, nine with French balconies and 16 with panoramic windows. An infinity pool has been installed, and the bridge wings have been replaced by two observation platforms.
 

When time comes, the vessel has been chartered out to Albatros Travel for Antarctica journeys in the winter season and to American Queen Steamboat for Alaska cruises in the summer.

How can you be confident that a new vessel design will actually perform in rough seas and demanding operations? The answer lies in thorough verification, independent testing and documented performance. Recently, a new Ulstein design for a cable-laying vessel was tested in a large-scale ocean basin at SINTEF Ocean. The results delivered exactly what Ulstein seeks: confidence that the design performs as intended.
