November 26-2009 Orion
Expedition Cruises announced today, the company has negotiated a
long-term charter with purchase options of Clelia II, currently operated
by New York-based Travel Dynamics International. The company has
sub-chartered Clelia II with a purchase option from Travel Dynamics
International of New York which has a direct agreement with the owner.
Clelia II will be renamed Orion II when she joins OEC in June
2011 and will be based in Singapore for expedition cruising around
Southeast Asia, with particular emphasis on Borneo and Vietnam.
May-24-2011 Sarina Bratton, founder and
md of Orion Expedition Cruises, has taken delivery of Orion II in
Curaçao where the former Clelia II has been in drydock, prior to setting
sail in her new livery for Los Angeles via the Panama Canal. |
jan. 2010
-Travel Dynamics International canceled two Antarctica voyages on Clelia
II as the ship undergoes repairs in Punta Arenas, Chile, following
propeller damage sustained on the Christmas cruise. On Dec. 26, Clelia
II was positioned in the usual landing cove at Petermann Island, Penola
Strait on the Antarctic Peninsula when a stronger-than-anticipated
southerly current pushed the ship toward the island. Efforts to correct
the situation failed, and the starboard propeller struck some rocks.
Dec.8-2010 The Clelia II is returning to Ushuaia and is being aided by
another cruise vessel NG Explorer”, said the Argentine Navy. She
is battling winds of 90 km, but the situation “is under
control”.The vessel was on its way back from Antarctica when
one of the engines failed “causing serious propulsion problems
and limitations in her manoeuvrability. However the crew managed
to make contact with another tourist vessel, the NG
Explorer, which immediately relayed the distress call.
The ship had 88 passengers, all from
the United States, and 77 crew: 44. There are no injuries to passengers,
although one member of the crew sustained minor injuries.
