Star Breeze cruise ship
Together with one of our partners for marine systems in Italy, Ship Systems SRL, we have provided the fire protection for the newly extended “Star Class” cruise ship, Star Breeze, which is operated by Windstar Cruises. The vessel recently underwent extensive refurbishment and modernization and was lengthened by 26 meters. A new mid-section was inserted into the ship to make room for 50 more staterooms, specialty restaurants, a new pool area, and more.
With the new section, the ship has increased its accommodation capacity from 212 to 312 passengers.
