The Viking Venus float-out in Ancona from Fincantieri
Today the Viking Venus, the seventh ship built for Viking Oceans Cruises, was floated out at the Fincantieri shipyards in Ancona. Viking Oceans Cruises is the maritime branch of the colossal Viking Cruises. The interior fittings will now begin, with a final completion scheduled for 2021.
The relationship between Viking and Fincantieri began in 2012 with the order for the construction of the first two ships dedicated to the maritime market and now they boast a total of 20 units between those already built and those on order. The Viking cruise ships are characterized by their high propulsion efficiency, with attention to emissions and consumption, and their modern safety and technology systems.
