German shipyard Volkswerft Stralsund is to build six large, luxury river cruise vessels for Munich-based tourism company Premicon AG. The shipyard also holds an option on a further three vessels, which has to be exercised by the end of this year.
The 135m river cruise vessels will be able to carry 220 passengers over three decks in 110 cabins. Delivery is scheduled between 2010 and 2012, after which the vessel will operate on the rivers Rhine and Danube.
The Volkswerft Stralsund newbuildings are improved versions of Premicon’s TwinCruiser series of river cruise vessels which were built by Rostock’s Neptun Werft, where the engineroom and passenger areas are separated, enabling a cruise that is engine noise and vibration free.
