Cruise line Silversea has officially named Silver Ray, a second ship in the line’s Nova Class.
It comes as the cruise line celebrates its 30th year of operation.

Dr. Josefina Olascoaga, ocean scientist and the ship’s godmother, officially named the ship alongside Captain Alessandro Zanello, taking the helm of Silver Ray.
