Talk:Exploris One

Semi-protected edit request on 30 April 2021

In my opinion the last part of the sentence "In June 2019, after the ship was sailing into Bering Sea it entangled in a fishing net and causes propeller damage, forcing them way to repair the drydock." in the section Incidents implies that the drydock had to be repaired - which, I think, does not make any sense. The ship had to be repaired and for that repair had to deviate from the original routing to the drydock where the repair had to be done.

I suggest to change that sentence to "In June 2019, after the ship was sailing into Bering Sea it entangled in a fishing net which caused propeller damage, forcing them way to drydock for repairs."

In my view that change makes the sentence much clearer and the expressions are more in line with terminology used in the shipping and cruise industries. Moka.s-Onkel (talk) 07:17, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

In the section "Service", the last sentence is currently "It will be transferred to Exploris in September 2023.[16]" I think this should be changed to "It will be transferred to Exploris in September 2023 to begin sailing in December 2023.[16]" This change is supported by the existing linked article 16. Interestingly the old owner Silversea is still listing October 2023 sailings on the same ship, but that's beside the point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lorenzolio (talk • contribs) 19:01, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

Include detail about owners and management companies ?

I seek feedback about whether it is appropriate to attempt to describe ownership and management companies for this vessel. There have been many changes in name over the years since launching in 1989, and there have probably been changes in owner and/or management company with most of the new vessel names. The background is that there is a recent discussion on the talk page of the version of this article in the German Wikipedia, where a list has been provided of the owners and management companies since 2002. See: de:Talk:Exploris One The source of the information is said to be the IHS Maritime Register, but a full citation has not been provided. This register appears to be a subscription service offered by S&P Global, and I do not have access. I note that data for the current owner and management company is available as part of a free trial service at Marine Vessel Traffic: , although the quality leaves a bit to be desired, and it is already out of date since the Exploris company is in liquidation. The question is whether including information about owners and management companies in this article is worthwhile or appropriate, given that it may be difficult to find sources. Is it normal to try and cover ownership and management companies in articles about ships ?_Marshelec (talk) 23:44, 2 April 2026 (UTC)

While a complicated and convoluted history is certainly something that could (or even should?) be included in the article, it should certainly be more than just a simple list of company names and year ranges — a fleshed-out story instead of an bare-bones infobox entry. Furthermore, it's perhaps not necessary to mention every company associated with the ship by name — focus on the companies or brands whose name is associated with the ship in news articles etc.

Anyway, here's the condensed ownership history from the S&P database:

• Delfin Cruises (1989–1992)
• Rauma-Repola Marine (1992–1993)
• Delfin Star Shipping (1993–1996) — parent owner was "Repola", presumably some entity associated with the shipyard
• Phoenix Maritime Shipping (1996–2001) — parent company was some South Korean company called "SK Shipping Co Ltd-KRS"
• Patrician Cruise(s) (2001–2003) — ultimate parent company was Discoverer Reederei
• Delta Steamship (2003–2004) — ultimate parent company was Discoverer Reederei
• Pegasus Marine & Offshore Pte (2004–2007) — parent company was Sembcorp Marine Repairs
• Silversea Cruises (2007–2021)
• Exploris SAS (2021–2023)
• Hammonia Adventure & Cruise (2023–2024) — ultimate parent company is Sunstone Ships
• Exploris SAS (2024–)
