The
Sea Cloud Spirit is a three-masted full-rigged ship built as a
cruise ship by the
Hamburg shipping company Sea Cloud Cruises. The ship was ordered on March 22, 2007 from the
Spanish Vigo. The ship’s
keel was laid on July 18, 2008. In the summer of 2010, the shipyard went bankrupt. The further construction of the ship was then initially set.
The ship was designed by engineer and naval architect Iñigo Echenique. Initially, Sea Cloud Husar was intended as the name for the ship. As ship construction resumed, this was changed to Sea Cloud Spirit . The ship was christened on September 7, 2021 in the port of Palma de Mallorca . Elena of Spain , the sister of King Felipe VI , was initially intended as godmother, but she declined. The ship’s maiden voyage began on September 14, 2021 in Civitavecchia .

The ship has four decks with passenger facilities: Main Deck, Promenade Deck, Captain’s and Lido Decks and Sun Deck. The total of 69 passenger cabins are spread over the main deck, promenade deck and captain’s and lido deck. The 25 cabins on the promenade deck have their own balconies. There is also an infirmary, a boutique and the wellness and spa area on the main deck. In addition, a bathing platform can be deployed here on the starboard side, from which water sports activities are also possible. The reception is located on the promenade deck and the restaurant is located in the rear area of the ship. On the captain’s and lido deck there is a library in the front, a lounge in the middle area and a bar combined with a bistro in the rear area. The sun deck is mostly open. There are more lounge areas for the passengers here. In the front area of the deck there are further superstructures in which, among other things, a fitness area is housed. In the front area are, among other things, the bridge and the captain’s cabin. The passenger areas are connected to each other by a stairwell and an elevator. The Hamburg planning office Partner Ship Design was responsible for the interior areas. Below the main deck is a deck containing most of the ship’s crew facilities. The ship is equipped with four Zodiac rigid inflatable boats.
