SunStone moves Ocean Victory to Madeira Registry

December 19, 2024

SunStone Maritime Group has the pleasure to announce yet another of its Infinity Class vessels, the Ocean Victory, now flying the Portuguese flag.

This registration with MAR, completed on the 18th of December, represents a critical milestone in SunStone's continuous efforts to strategically align its fleet under the Madeira Register. The move of the Ocean Victory brings SunStone back to having a total of 9 vessels flying the Portuguese flag, after the Ocean Diamond was sold earlier in the year, demonstrating the company's dedication to expand its presence in Madeira with new state-of-the-art vessels.

The Ocean Victory was delivered in 2021 and has cutting-edge nautical engineering, designed for safe and efficient passage in the world's most demanding regions, including Arctic and Antarctic waters. With a capacity up to 186 passengers and pioneering technology for increased stability and fuel efficiency, this vessel exemplifies SunStone's commitment to safe and responsible expedition cruising.

Thismilestone was only achievable thanks to the consistent support and cooperation of major stakeholders. SunStone expresses profound appreciation to the Governo Regional da Madeira RIN-MAR, Technical Commission S.D.M. - Sociedade de Desenvolvimento da Madeira, S.A., EUROPEAN MAR (EUROMAR), Anglo Eastern Cruise Management Inc., CF - Maritime Legal Services, and MAD.INTAX - Madeira Advice for International Structuring, Lda. Your combined efforts ensured another successful transfer to MAR.
