Havila Voyages has christened new-ship Havila Castor in Alesund. 

Godmother Aurora Sævik christened Havila Castor with pure water from Geirangerfjord

On Monday (14 November), the coastal cruise ship was officially named by its godmother, and granddaughter of Havila chair Per Sævik, Aurora Sævik, in Skansekaia.

"I was incredibly proud and happy when Grandfather asked if I wanted to be godmother to Havila Castor," said Aurora Sævik.

"We, the grandchildren, were allowed to help choose the names of the coastal cruise ships, but I had never imagined standing here today. This will be a life-long memory."

"We would have liked to have the twin ship Havila Pollux here today as well, but she will have her well-deserved christening in the course of next year," added Per Sævik.
