THE keel has been laid for MSC Cruises’ MSC Seashore during a traditional coin ceremony held at the Fincantieri shipyard in Monfalcone, Italy this week.
MSC Cruises revealed more details about the ship at the event, telling attendees that its newest addition will be the line’s longest at 330 metres, and will also have the highest ratio of outdoor space per guest of any ship in the company’s fleet.
“MSC Seashore – which will feature the latest and most advanced environmental technology currently available – represents another proof of our long-standing commitment to preserve the environment in our ongoing journey to minimise and continuously reduce the impact of our operations,” said MSC Cruises Executive Chairman Pierfrancesco Vago.
Long-standing employees Marianna Cicala and Silvia Bozzetto were on hand at the ceremony to perform the godmother ritual of placing two coins under the new ship’s keel.
MSC Seashore is due to enter service in Jun 2021.
