Cruise Princess History Bits

The very first cruise princess was started in the mid sixties. The first princess cruise was made possible when Stanley MacDonald chartered ferry Princess Patricia for a Los Angeles cruise. Unfortunately Princess Patricia was not designed for tropical cruising and so she was replaced with a cruise ship which is more suitable for sailing tropical waters. The cruise ship was called Italia which was later changed into Princess Italia.

The ship Princess Italia was one of the first ships built to ever employ modern design elements. And by this it means that lifeboats mounted lower on the ship which gives ample space for the upper decks and then the engines were placed far in the rear which provides more spacious rooms amidships.

The construction of Princess Italia was sort of slow and it was said that the owners as well as the builders were bankrupted, that by the time the ship was finished, they had to turn it over to the bank. The bank in turn created a company that will charter or sell the ship and it was not long that Princess Italia was finally chartered. After Princess Italia other cruise princess liners followed.
