It's time for us to sail on a luxury small ship again.
Our last two were on the Hebridean Princess, thanks to Knothead, and before that on SeaDream I.
We will be sailing on the Explora I in March, but at 650 pax, I don't consider that a small ship. And we are sailing on the Silver Shadow in July, but at 382 pax it's still a bit larger than we want.
We enjoyed our last SeaDream cruise, but our TA has recommended the new Emerald Cruise line ship, the Emerald Sakura for a Carribean cruise next winter. It's a new ship, carries just 100 passengers, and is a subsidiary of Scenic, which has a good reputation.
I'm tempted to try it. Any opinions out there that might be helpful?
