SEA CLOUD SPIRIT Maiden Journey of - Sea Cloud Spirit Premiere of the newest tall ship
Dear windjammer friends,

    Many great things were not created overnight. With the
    construction of yet another tall ship, a new adventure
    began a few years ago also for S ea C loud C ruiSeS .
    And marks the departure into a new era: For us, launching
    the Sea Cloud S pirit means preserving traditional
    seamanship and centuries-old traditions of navigation
    and rigging, while at the same time meeting even better
    the evolving demands for comfort, enjoyment and modern
    cruising spirit.

    With the Spanish shipyard Metalships in Vigo, we have
    found a special partner whose expertise lies in the reali-
    zation of complex shipbuilding projects. In cooperation
    with various first-class suppliers, we rely on traditional
    craftsmanship. And we make no compromises, neither in
    the rigging nor in the interior fittings. Thanks to the quality
    of our partners and their shared know-how, the original
    date of the maiden voyage was clearly defined. But adven-
    tures have their own rules.

    After construction progress was temporarily severely
    affected by the pandemic, the work is now running at full
    speed again. And, after our last visit to Vigo, it is also clear:
    the Sea Cloud S pirit will be ready next spring and
    will perfectly complement our fine fleet!

    We are sure that this adventure will finally come to a good
    end. So that another great adventure can soon begin for
    you. Our crew will be delighted to welcome you on board
    from 22 April to 2 May 2021.

    Best wishes,
    Your Sea Cloud CruiSeS Team

“Curtain up” for the new SEA CLOUD SPIRIT:
    Inspiring, generous and with many new possibilities.

    To build a fully rigged three-master in the 21st century might seem a little unusual. For Sea Cloud CruiSeS,
    this is a commitment to the true passion for sailing.

                                                      A windjammer that sets new standards
                                                      among sailors
                                                      The youngest member of the S ea C loud family offers
                                                      plenty of space for individuality in addition to true windjammer
                                                      romance. The S ea C loud S pirit combines traditional
                                                      windjammer experience with the feel-good requirements of the
                                                      21st century. In a time when everything seems to be getting
                                                      more hectic, faster and more digital, traditionally hand-sailed
                                                      ships stand for pure deceleration and relaxation.

                                                      The new concept aboard the             S ea C loud S pirit :
                                                      • Even more comfort: out of the 69 cabins from the Owner
                                                        suite to the Superior outside cabin, almost half have
                                                        balconies or windows that can be opened.
                                                      • Thanks to the spacious wellness area, fitness with sea
                                                        view and the spacious sun deck with sun loungers, you
                                                        will not only enjoy the freedom under sails.
                                                      • A bistro on the lido deck as an evening alternative to “fine
                                                        dining” in the restaurant offers more room for individuality.
                                                      • The largest sail area of the fleet with 4.100 m2/44,100 sq ft,
                                                        promises pure sailing pleasure.

                                                      Welcome aboard, Captain Gerald Schöber!
                                                      As a passionate sailor and well-experienced tall ship captain
                                                      we are very proud we could win Gerald Schöber for new ende-
                                                      avors on Sea Cloud Spirit. “It is really something special
                                                      to be the first captain on such a unique ship”, he admits. He
                                                      has been on board Sea Cloud Spirit since September to
                                                      accompany the final construction progress of his ship. We say:
                                                      Welcome to the family, fair winds and always a hand’s width of
                                                      water under the keel.

Precaution for operation under
    Covid-19 conditions:
    Our prevention and hygiene concept for your safety and well-being on
    board our windjammers

    We have developed a comprehensive prevention and safety concept for resuming our sailing voyages in Spring 2021.
    The measures comply with the highest hygienic standards with regard to Covid-19 and are based among others on the
    guidelines of the ECDC (European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control) and the EU Healthy Gateways, and were
    developed in close consultation with the senior ships’ medical team. Besides organization and hygiene measures, the
    plan also includes intensive training for the crew.

    Due to the distance and hygiene rules that have to be observed for your health protection, you will face certain
    restrictions during your journey. Most likely these restrictions will be subject to change over the next few months. The
    most recent development of vaccines and medications gives well-founded reason to hope for a return to the regular
    ship operation in 2021. However, since the course of events over time cannot be predicted, we will continuously adapt
    the following prevention and hygiene concept to further developments. You can find the current status on our website
    www.seacloud.com.

                  Health check and Covid-19 test obligation for guests
                  Upon embarkation, all guests must present a Covid-19 test no more than 72 hours old, as well as a
                  completed health questionnaire. Before embarkation on board, after every shore leave and daily on
                  board, a contactless body temperature measurement will be taken. Embarkation is organized in small
                  groups. The minimum distance must be observed, and a mouth-nose protection is required. Compliance
                  with the prevention measures defined by Sea Cloud CruiSeS will be guaranteed by the terminal
                  operators.

                  Regular health checks of the crew
                  Each crew member will undergo a comprehensive health check and Covid-19 test before starting an
                  assignment. In addition, a temperature check will be performed once a day. All crew members are
                  obliged to wear mouth-nose protection.

                  Reliable medical care on board
                  For the health management on board, a Health and Infection Officer is deployed in addition to the
                  ship’s doctor. The wohle crew will intensively be trained on board in advanced prevention and hygiene
                  measures and the early detection of Covid-19 symptoms. Should a Covid-19 suspicion arise during a
                  cruise, the guest will be under close medical supervision until the next port of call. For this purpose, an
                  appropriate quarantine station is maintained on board.

                  100% fresh air in cabins and public areas
                  Fresh air also means clean air. Each cabin is supplied with fresh air directly from the outside. The venti-
                  lation is designed in such a way that the exhaust air cannot reach another cabin or other areas of the
                  ship. Public areas are also supplied with 100% fresh air, which is discharged directly to the outside. In
                  addition, the ventilation system is equipped with appropriate filters.

Extensive technical hygiene equipment
            The ships are equipped with contactless body thermometers and Covid-19 test possibilities. The
            general rules of hygiene apply on board (hand hygiene, cough and sneeze etiquette, avoidance of
            facial contact). The number of disinfectant dispensers on board has been significantly increased so
            that guests and staff can disinfect their hands at all important contact points. Protective equipment
            such as disposable gloves and mouth-nose protection can be obtained at the reception desk upon
            request.

            Intensive cleaning/disinfection of the cabins and all public areas
            A very high standard of hygiene applies to our fleet. Frequently touched surfaces such as door handles
            and stair railings are cleaned and disinfected with increased frequency. Cabin cleaning takes place
            twice a day. Before the arrival of new guests, all cabins/suites and all public areas are cleaned with a
            state-of-the-art disinfection process.

            Reduced number of guests on board for distance control
            The number of passengers on board will be reduced to such an extent that, in compliance with the
    1,5 m
            distance rules (1.5 meters / 5 feet or transparent partitions), all guests can be seated at the same
            time. This allows all guests to enjoy relaxed dining together as usual on the Sea Cloud CruiSeS
            windjammers. The lower number of passengers also guarantees the necessary distance in public areas.
            All guests must keep a distance of 1.5 meters / 5 feet. Excluded from this are persons traveling in the
            same cabin or belonging to a travel group. If a minimum distance of 1.5 meters / 5 feet to other trave-
            lers cannot be maintained, a mouth-nose protection is mandatory.

            Our familiar culinary finesse, no self-service
            The culinary quality and choice will remain untouched. There will however be no self-service in the
            restaurant, at the buffet or at the bar. The high number of employees will remain unchanged even with
            the reduced number of guests ensuring even more individual service and more resources for the imple-
            mentation of hygiene measures.

            On-board and shore program in smaller group sizes
            Lectures or events will take place with a smaller number of participants and in compliance with the
            applicable distance and hygiene rules. It will also be possible to visit the SPA and fitness area or the
            hairdresser’s in compliance with the rules of hygiene and distance. Shore excursions will be organized
            in small groups. The excursion agencies comply with the same prevention and hygiene measures that
            apply on board. Individual shore excursions are currently not possible.
