Mystic Cruises refits newly acquired ship Vasco da Gama

Mystic Cruises is refitting its cruise ship Vasco de Gama at Lisnave Shipyard in Setúbal, Portugal, after acquiring the vessel at auction in November 2021.

Vasco da Gama will receive five selective catalytic reduction systems to bring her emissions below the International Maritime Organization’s Tier III standards, in a project led by marine engineering consultancy TecnoVeritas. The vessel will also receive a new sewage plant, while its interiors will be redesigned.
