The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection Completes Sea Trials

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has announced that its inaugural yacht, Evrima, has successfully completed a series of sea trials in the city of Santander, Spain. Viewed as one of the final shipbuilding milestones prior to launch, sea trials are a series of system tests that are carried out when the yacht is sailing on open waters.

Evrima’s sea trials were led by Captain Steven MacBeath, in collaboration with a team of senior officers, engineers, contractors and shipyard staff. The onboard experience is expected to blend the lifestyle of The Ritz-Carlton resorts with the casual freedom of a yachting vacation.

The superyacht measures 623 feet and is designed to offer an intimate experience and one of the highest space ratios at sea. The intimate size of the yacht creates a more residential feel, and the expansive suites feature floor-to-ceiling windows resulting in more flowing, spacious accommodations. Guests will enjoy a range of onboard activities and entertainment, watersports from the yacht’s marina, a curated menu of spa treatments and the yacht’s signature restaurant, which was designed by Sven Elverfeld of Aqua, the three-Michelin-star restaurant at The Ritz-Carlton, Wolfsburg.

Introducing curated itineraries and signature experiences, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is set to carve out a niche within the industry and pave the way for a new era of cruising.
