Welcome to the last part of our New Build series. How long does it take to build such a ship? Iwan: “From the cutting of the first steel at the shipyard in Serbia and transport to the Netherlands to the finishing and delivery in Hardinxveld-Giessendam, you have to count on a year and a half. We have been fortunate for many years to be able to work together with a number of valuable partners, who make it possible to build the most beautiful ships with us again and again in a short period of time.” Bart: “We work on several ships at the same time. While one ship is being finished, the hull of the next ship is already being built. Of course we have to do that if we want to deliver three new ships every year. And in between, we also renovate some of our current ships. By the way, we are still looking for new colleagues for our New Build team to join us in these fun challenges!” Interested in joining Scylla as a Naval Architect or Project Manager New Build? www.scylla.com/jobs Which series would you like next?

Did you know that our new ship MS Porto Mirante was transported inside another ship from the Netherlands to Portugal? Because our river cruise ships are not suitable for sea travel, we received help from an ocean-going ship. Check out this cool video to see how it was done.🛳🌊🌍 Scylla ⚜️ Quality, our passion. . . . #msportomirante #ship #rivercruise #sailing #portugal #Douro #shiptransport

Welcome to the third part of our New Build series. In this part, we share some details about the Design. We asked our Design Director: "Do you create a new design for each new ship?" “The designs of our ships are the result of over 50 years of experience and are constantly being improved.” Says Alex. “So each new ship is not completely redesigned, but precisely that good basis for which Scylla is known offers room to further innovate each time parts. Both technically and in terms of interior design. That way we can always realize another great new product in a short lead time.” Stay tuned for the next part.

Welcome to the second part of our New Build series, where our Design Director Alex Jansen and Naval Architect Bart Vos tell us how we start building a new ship. “Of course it all starts with a question from one of our clients, the tour operator” says Alex. “We sit down with them around the table to listen to their specific requirements.” “In addition, we obviously have to take into account specific cruising area where the ship will be sailing. Bridges, locks, draught, but also local regulations and sustainability determine how the hull of the ship will be drawn,” adds Bart. That is how the planning of a new Scylla ship starts. Stay tuned for the next part. Scylla ⚜️ Quality, our passion. . . . #msportomirante #newbuild #ship #rivercruise #sailing #portugal #weareScylla #career
