1/6/2024 0 Comments Clipper cruisesPreviously, Star Clippers modelled Royal Clipper (capacity 227 passengers) on Preussen (German, steel-hulled 5-masted ship, 1902-built). The ship was designed by Zygmunt Choren (Polish naval architect) and modelled on France II - the 1912-built sailing vessel which was the world's biggest at its time. The vessel was launched on June 10, 2017, and scheduled for delivery in 2017-Q4 but was rescheduled for 2018-Q1 and finally for 2019-H2. The shipbuilder is Brodosplit Shipyard ( Split Croatia). The corporation DIV Group operates in 30 countries, fully owns 55 subsidiary companies and specializes in shipbuilding, steel structure manufacturing, marine engine manufacturing, railway infrastructure, among others.įlying Clipper was intended as Star Clippers' biggest ship, and also the company's first newbuild (since the 2000-built Royal Clipper). The company's CEO is Alan McGrory.ĭIV Group Ltd is a 1990-founded Croatian industrial group, also Brodosplit Shipyard's owner. Tradewind Voyages plans to charter more newbuilt sailships and expand operations over the coming years. The vessel was renamed "Golden Horizon", rebranded and scheduled to start cruises for Tradewind in May 2021. For the ship's Deck-, Hotel- and Engine operations was contracted the DIV Group's subsidiary company BSM (Brodosplit Ship Management). The boat charterer Tradewind Voyages manages the vessel and most onboard and ashore operations (hotel, wellness, shopping, entertainment, water sports, tours/shore excursions). On June 5, 2020, the shipowner (DIV Group Ltd/Croatia) announced that the sailship will be chartered to Tradewind Voyages UK Ltd instead of Star Clippers Ltd. The vessel (IMO number 9793545) is currently Croatia- flagged (MMSI 238129940). The megayacht (square-rigger / 5-Masted Schooner) is also the world's ever largest clipper (tall-sailing ship). The 2019-built Golden Horizon cruise ship (fka "Flying Clipper") was originally planned to be chartered to Star Clippers as the company's newest (fleet's 4th) sailing vessel.
