Silversea's Silver Spirit Begins Sea Trials Today

Luxury cruise fans have been waiting for this: Silversea's new 540-passenger cruise ship, Silver Spirit, begins her sea trials today in Ancona, Italy. Located on the Adriatic Sea, Ancona is about 275 miles northeast of Rome.

Silver Spirit's first sea trial will take her from Ancona to Trieste, a city in northeast Italy near the border of Slovenia. Once she arrives there, she'll spent a week in dry dock before embarking on her final sea trials.

Good luck to Silversea! We can't wait to see this gorgeous new ship in action!
