MSC Cruises' first ship in the Seaside EVO class will be called MSC Seashore.
Shipbuilder Fincantieri cut the first steel on the ship,
which is scheduled for a spring 2021 delivery.
The ship will be 169,400 gross tons and accommodate up to
3,296 passengers at double occupancy.
The MSC Seashore is "inspired by MSC Cruises' vision
for cruising in warm climates in a unique setting," the line said.
MSC said the ship will have an additional lounge at the aft
of the ship, an enhanced MSC Yacht Club covering three forward decks, specialty
restaurants at the promenade level on Deck 8 for dining al fresco and more
whirlpools across the ship.
Like the preceding MSC Seaside and MSC Seaview, the Seashore will feature
a wrap-around promenade on Deck 8.
Seaside EVO ships will be equipped with exhaust gas cleaning
technology, modern waste management and recycling systems, advanced water
treatment systems, and an advanced energy and heat recovery system.
