The chief executive of SeaDream Yacht Club, Pamela Conover, has announced she is stepping down from the role after less than a year at the helm.
Conover’s departure follows the decision to consolidate the two-ship cruise company in Norway.
Atle Brynestad, chairman and owner of SeaDream, will once again assume the role of chief executive.
Conover will spend the next month working with Brynestad to ensure a smooth transition of duties.
Brynestad said he respected her decision to leave and thanked her for her contributions to the company.
SeaDream top rated by Berlitz 2013
The 2013 Berlitz Guide to Cruising & Cruise Ships released last month, announced that the 112-guest mega yachts SeaDream I and SeaDream II have again achieved the top two ratings in the ‘Boutique Ships’ category (50 – 250 passengers). The Berlitz Guide, now in its 28th year, is researched and written by Douglas Ward, the world’s top authority on cruising and cruise ships. Having reviewed 284 cruise ships, Ward has named the top-rating ships for 2013, with the 10 most highly rated being officially ‘small’ or ‘boutique’. The SeaDream ships’ ratings out of a possible 2,000 points are: SeaDream II – 1,788 points and SeaDream I – 1,786 points.
