Keel laid for 2nd ultra-luxury Orient Express sailing yacht at Saint-Nazaire
Chantiers de l’Atlantique has laid the keel for Orient Express Olympian, the second newbuild in the Orient Express Sailing Yacht series and sister ship to Orient Express Corinthian.
The construction milestone took place at the shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France, just 10 months after steel cutting began in January. The ship is scheduled for delivery in spring 2027, one year after Orient Express Corinthian debuts.
The ceremony involved the placement of the first of 17 structural blocks in the dry dock, marking the official start of hull assembly.
