摘要: American Cruise Lines (ACL), which already operates a fleet of 15 passenger cruise vessels along 35 domestic itineraries in 31 states, has announced plans to build 12 identical ships that will focus on coastal cruising in the United States. The company is calling it "Project Blue" and is describing the vessels, which will feature a hybrid catamaran design, as a "new fleet of go-anywhere ships for the U.S. market." The ships will have accommodations for 109 passengers and 50 crew members and will measure 241 feet by 56 feet. American Cruise Lines President and CEO Charles Robertson said the fleet will be focused on small towns and shallow waterways. "Project Blue started as a design challenge to create a boat small enough for New England harbors and stable enough for the Alaska Inside Passage, with a draft shallow enough for the Atlantic In-tracoastal Waterway," Robertson said. "These boats can run almost anywhere, and because there will be 12 of them, they will be deployed all over the United States."
