During a beautiful sunset ceremony on the River Thames in London, The Yachts of Seabourn's highly anticipated new Seabourn Sojourn was named by British supermodel Twiggy, who served as godmother to the new yacht. More than 700 guests and staff attended the naming ceremony and burst into applause as the bottle of champagne smashed.

Sojourn arrived into London in the early hours of Friday morning and began two days of celebrations. Guests at the Naming Ceremony on Friday were treated to the best of Seabourn's epicurean delights at a deck party before Twiggy officially named the yacht at 1900hrs.

Followed by a gala dinner and a sunset party where guests were entertained by electric string quartet, Siren, culminating in an epic firework display over the London skyline.

On Saturday 5th June, Breast Cancer Haven hosted a charity fundraising event onboard Sojourn to celebrate their 10th Anniversary. Guests included the charity's ambassador, Kimberley Walsh, BBC News Reader Sophie Raworth and actor, Julian Fellowes.
