Case Study: Emerald Azzurra achieves luxury coastal cruising reliability with Cummins marine engines

Luxurious Super Yacht Cruises

Emerald Azzurra, part of Scenic’s Emerald Yacht Cruises, needed a reliable propulsion and power solution for a new 110-meter luxury cruise vessel designed for small-ship coastal cruising in the Mediterranean and Adriatic. The ship had to support high guest comfort standards, from luxury lounges and hot tubs to a gourmet galley, while also delivering dependable performance and compliance for modern marine operations.

Cummins provided the vessel’s integrated marine power package, including a pair of IMO III compliant QSK60-M main propulsion engines, three QSK19-DM generator sets, and a QSB emergency genset, all fitted with exhaust after-treatment systems. The solution gave Emerald Azzurra the propulsion and auxiliary power needed for smooth, efficient operations and helped enable the vessel’s launch into luxury coastal cruising, though the case study does not cite specific quantitative performance results.
