  • Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Companies
    More than a Directory! Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Companies 1st Edition, April 2013 © 2013 by J. R. Kuehmayer www.amem.at Cruise Ship Owners / Operators Preface The AMEM Publication “Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Compa- nies” in fact is more than a directory! Company co-ordinates It is not only the most comprehensively and accurately structured listing of cruise ship owners and operators in the industry, despite the fact that the majority of cruise lines is more and more keeping both the company’s coordinates and the managerial staff secret. The entire industry is obtrusively focused on selling their services weeks and months ahead of the specific cruise date, collecting the money at a premature stage and staying almost unattainable for their clients pre and after cruise requests. They simply ignore the fact that there are suppliers and partners around who wish to keep in touch personally at least with the cruise line’s technical and procurement departments! The rest of the networking-information is camouflaged by the yellow-pages industry, which is facing a real prospect of extinction. The economic downturn is sending the already ailing business into a tailspin. The yellow-pages publishers basically give back in one downturn what took seven years to grow! Cruise Ship Financing It is more than a directory as it unveils the shift in the ship financing sector and uncovers how fast the traditional financiers to the cruise shipping industry fade away and perverted forms of financing are gaining ground. Admittedly there are some traditional banks around, which can maintain their market position through a blend of sober judgements, judicious risk management and solid relationships.

  • STAR CLIPPERS: a Truly Authentic Sailing Experience a Star Clippers Sailing Is Not Your Typical Cruise
    STAR CLIPPERS: A Truly Authentic Sailing Experience A Star Clippers sailing is not your typical cruise. We don’t have Vegas-style revues in a grand theater or a casino with slots, blackjack and poker. We don’t have dozens of bars, lounges and restaurants. And we don’t have an overwhelm- ing sense of “there’s too much to do on board.” We also don’t have thousands of guests, a crowded dining room, long lines at our buffet and cramped deck space. A vacation is meant to be relaxing, and that is the order of the day at Star Clippers. We have a higher deck-space-per- guest ratio than most cruise lines, so our guests can always find a lounge chair to soak up some sun, enjoy the ocean breeze or catch up on a good book. Our guests dine in one unhurried sitting, so they can take their time and enjoy the meal with new friends. They are greeted by name, and their preferences remembered by our attentive staff. And our guests are pampered with all of the major amenities found on a typical cruise vacation. The Mega-Yacht Sailing Experience Authentic sailing adventure ~ Just 170 or 227 pampered guests ~ All the modern amenities of a private Mega-Yacht ~ International cuisine complemented by fine wines ~ Dine with whomever and whenever you want ~ Casual, relaxed ambience – no need to dress up ~ Visit off the beaten path ports of call ~ Full range of water sports ~ Sail in full harmony with the environment ~ No crowds or long lines What makes Star Clippers the ideal option for guests looking to take a unique sailing vacation? The Wind in Our Sails When guests embark on a Star Clippers journey, they immediately notice the beautiful masts and sails in place of the typical cruise ship silhouette.

    STOWAWAY Luxury and boutique small ship news for discerning travellers Issue 11 Sails of the century! Cruise Sail special edition Travel under billowing white canvas brings passengers closer to nature and the sea than any other cruise experience although the entire world fleet of cruise ships travelling under sail (discounting private yacht charter), numbers barely a dozen. Only one sail newbuild has entered the world fleet in over ten years and there’s just one further sailing ship currently in construction, with the launch anticipated as late 2018 – see details on the Star Clippers page following. Sail cruising is a unique and to many, a romantic sea travel experience – here’s Stowaway’s look at these ships, what they offer on board and where they will be in 2018. Talk to Cruise Select for further details and to book. Star Clippers Star Clippers ships are the passion of the cruise line’s founder Mikael Krafft who built the 5,000gt Royal Clipper, entering service in 2002, as a contemporary recreation of the five masted Preussen, at the time of its construction in 1902 the world’s biggest sailing ship. Royal Clipper, the largest of Star Clippers’ current sail trio, is unique as the only ship under sail with a number of suites with private balconies. The ship carries a maximum of 227 passengers, providing them with plenty of deck space and three pools below the five masts carrying 56,000 square feet of sail. Passengers can ascend to the crow’s nest up aloft – wearing safety harnesses of course – to view the sea from high up, or see it in a completely different way through underwater portholes in the Captain Nemo spa and health club.

    TRANSATLANTIC WESTBOUND (ROYAL CLIPPER) Friends gather round the Piano Bar and join in singing a few favorites. And in the Tropical Bar, the bartender shakes a pitcher full of some delicious cooling concoction. Now, is there anything more relaxing than this? Clearly this is not a cruise ship in the ordinary sense. On Star Clippers, you will find that there are no rigid schedules. You are free to do as you wish with your days – and evenings. To entertain you, we bring local ITINERARY performers on board to give passengers an authentic taste of Day 1 Lisbon, Portugal the local music and arts. So rather than enduring another Broadway revue, you can enjoy the conviviality of fellow The capital of Portugal since its conquest from the Moors in 1147, Lisbon is a legendary city with over 20 centuries of history. Spreading out along the right shipmates while a live band plays tropical tunes from a real bank of the Tagus, its downtown, the Baixa, is located in the 18th-century paradise. The Captain and crew are superb improvisers of the area around Rossio. The Alfama, one of the oldest quarters in Lisboa, still retains much of its original layout since it largely survived the earthquake of kind of light-hearted fun you’ll only find on Star Clippers. The 1755. Captain’s daily briefing on deck is wonderfully informative and a chance to hear some great story-telling as well.
