This paper deals with Sitmar Cruises' newbuilding programme and describes the principal features of its three new ships which are being built in France and Italy. The ships are the first of a new generation of diesel-electric passenger cruise ships now being constructed for various owners and they represent a major change of direction for Sitmar in terms of ship design. A complete and detailed description of the ship is beyond the scope of this paper, but some of the more interesting and innovative areas of the machinery plant are covered in depth, together with a summary of the reasoning behind some of the technical decisions taken.
