Jim Avery Posted February 8, 2015 #51 Share Posted February 8, 2015 then Seabourn should talk to Silversea for using Spirit and Azamara should talk to Sebaourn about using Quest yada, yada, yada. Just as long as they don't infringe on Cunard with Seabourn Queen....:eek::D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Norton Posted February 8, 2015 #52 Share Posted February 8, 2015 then Seabourn should talk to Silversea for using Spirit and Azamara should talk to Sebaourn about using Quest yada, yada, yada. Looking at my name radar first we have the Silver Spirit. Well that's not quite the same as just 'Spirit' is it? It is the Silver Spirit which differentiates it from the whomever else Spirit. So it's not the SilverSeas Spirit. It's the SilverSeas 'Silver Spirit'. W/e. Now for the Azamara Quest, the problem is that became the Quest in 2007. Seabourn didn't have a Quest until 2011. So who is copying whom there? Perhaps you could pick a better argument? ;) /wishes ships names were more distinct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joc123 Posted February 9, 2015 #55 Share Posted February 9, 2015 This is a little off topic, so please forgive me. It looks like the maiden voyage will be in December and reading between the lines, will leave from Dubai. Do you think they will have this over the Christmas New Year period? If so, it will make it very difficult for us to go. When we put our $400 down we were told it would be in the Med and in June! For what it is worth, I really don't like the names.

I'm merely pointing out that many ships from different lines have similar names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rols Posted February 23, 2015 #66 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Why has Seabourn chosen to name its new ships after two Mooney aircraft? Will the next two ships be the Eagle and the Acclaim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
