Disney Cruise Line’s Newest Ship Leaves Meyer Werft Shipyard

In step signaling the cruise ship is entering the final stage of a two-year construction project.where Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship Disney Treasure (144,256 GT) leaves from the shipyard located inland in Germany to her ocean berth in the Netherlands.

The Disney Treasure departed the shipyard at midday on September 18 and arrived in Eemshaven, Netherlands on the morning of September 19.

She will remain alongside for finishing touches and preparation for her handover to Disney Cruise Line.

It is noteworthy that the ship traveled for approximately 16 hours guided by tugs on the winding trip along the Ems River from Papenburg.

Ship specifications

The cruise ship which is 1,119 feet (341 meters) in length and has a beam of 128 feet (39 meters) is so large that Meyer has found from experience that it is best to take the ships stern first along the river. It gives them better control in navigating the turns and a tight passage of a lock on the river.

The ship when fully loaded will have a draft of 27.2 feet (8.3 meters) and an air draft of 221 feet (67 meters).
