SeaDream unveils plans for first new luxury yacht in 25 years

SeaDream Yacht Club has revealed plans for SeaDream III, its first new luxury vessel in 25 years. Scheduled to launch in July 2029, the 495ft yacht will begin sailing from Asia, including itineraries across the region and a world cruise that finishes in the UK. The family-owned line says the ship will carry about 200 guests with an almost one-to-one crew-to-passenger ratio. Accommodation spans five decks, featuring more suites and private balconies on four guest decks. The design emphasizes open-air living, with a dedicated pool deck, expanded spa and wellness, and three watersports marinas. The maiden voyage departs Hong Kong on 10 July 2029.
