Seabourn-Venture Vessel Reviews and Specifications

On March 23, 2025, while navigating 100 nautical miles away from Tenerife, the 'Seabourn Venture', en route from Montevideo to Lisbon, urgently called for a medical evacuation of an injured crew member. The Rescue Coordination Center (RCC) of Salvamento Marítimo in Tenerife promptly dispatched the SAR helicopter Helimer 202. The helicopter successfully hoisted the injured crew member, who was conscious at the time, and swiftly transferred him to a nearby hospital for advanced medical attention. The cruise ship continued its voyage and arrived at its destination on March 25.

The Seabourn Venture, which set sail from Ushuaia on February 11, 2025, has had to alter its itinerary owing to a stabilizer system failure identified by Seabourn’s technical crew. Although the vessel remains seaworthy, the stabilizer's malfunction has compelled a considerable change in its planned course. As a result, the ship will skip its originally scheduled stop at South Georgia, opting instead to immerse guests in the "Seabourn Antarctic Experience" for an extended ten days. Travelers will enjoy an additional five days in the breathtaking Antarctic Peninsula and two extra days in the picturesque Falkland Islands, enhancing the voyage's overall experience. This change allows for increased flexibility in exploration, including a potential journey south of the Antarctic Circle. The Fleet Operations Center is focused on arranging a route that ensures the most comfortable voyage possible, which may include further adjustments to optimize the crossing of the Drake Passage. To make amends for the alteration and inconvenience caused, Seabourn is extending a $1,000 refundable onboard credit to affected guests. Moreover, passengers will benefit from a Future Cruise Credit equivalent to 25% of their paid cruise fare, applicable to various expenses, including pre- and post-cruise packages.
