Yes, this is legit being built for 2016, same size and same interior probably, only difference is a few safer improvements like welding, bow thrusters and life boats.

It's going to be sailing from Southampton to New York, and hopefully lasting 20 to 30 years, it will be built by an Australian ship company in a Chinese ship yard, not Belfast which sucks cause I won't be able to see it passing me :(

So yeah, I myself would love to go on this!

That's going to be a tiny ship compared to modern cruise ships. I imagine it's going to be ugodly expensive for a room on it.

Except this time they have GPS and better stuff, so that won't be a problem.
