MSC Seascape is a Seaside EVO-class cruise ship built for MSC Cruises at the Fincantieri shipyard in Monfalcone, Italy. The leader of her sub-class is the MSC Seashore, who was delivered to MSC Cruises in July 2022. This class is a larger version of the main Seaside class of cruise ships.
History
Planning and construction
On 29 November 2017, at the delivery ceremony of MSC Seaside, MSC announced it had signed an order with Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri worth €1.8 billion for two new cruise ships, scheduled for delivery in 2021 and 2023, respectively. The two ships would make up the Seaside EVO-class, described as a "further evolution of the Seaside-class prototype" established by MSC Seaside and MSC Seaview. The order for the first Seaside EVO ship replaced an order originally placed for a third Seaside-class vessel. MSC Seascape is described to be the largest and most technologically advanced ship ever built in Italy.[5]
The MSC Seascape's naming ceremony was held on 7 December 2022 at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal.[6]
MSC Seascape started her career with a repositioning cruise from the Mediterranean to North America. This maiden voyage started on November 18, 2022. After arriving in New York, she sailed down to Miami to begin her main career in the region on 11 December 2022.[7]
Design and specifications
MSC Seascape is 339 meters long (1112.2 ft.) and has a beam of 41 meters (135 ft.), which makes it the longest ship in the fleet. She measures 76 meters high (243 ft.). MSC Seascape is 20 decks tall[8] Her gross tonnage is 169,400 GT. The ship can do a maximum speed of 22 knots. However, cruising speed she does about 18.5 knots. She has a maximum passenger capacity of 5,179 passengers and 1,648 crew members.[9] The ship holds emphasis on outdoor spaces, with a narrower superstructure and larger promenade areas. Many safety features, environmentally friendly policies, and other minor details are borrowed from her sister ship MSC Seashore. A new attraction known as the Robotron has been featured near the ship's pool deck aft, where the Marina Pool lies on deck 18. The Robotron lies right next to the sports arena, located on deck 20.
Incidents
| Date | Incident | Description |
|---|---|---|
| January 19, 2023 | Power Loss | A power loss (technical issue with one of the engines) caused a reduced maximum speed. This resulted in one port of call being replaced, with a "great danger" if the second engine failed.[10] |
| November 14, 2023 | Overboard | A 30-year-old Indian or Mauritian male crew member went overboard in the late evening near Puerto Rico. It is not known whether the crew member jumped or not. On 16 November, the United States Coast Guard suspended its search.[11][12] |
