Original concept and founders edit
Storylines Global Inc. was originally conceived by Alister Punton and Shannon Lee. They have combined history and extensive experience in the real estate, construction, technology, and maritime industries. Their original plan involved a sustainable solution for discarded old cruise ships. The idea was to save the ships from waste by recycling, redesigning, and refurbishing them into residential ships on which people could travel the world from home. After experimenting with a few ships, they soon pivoted to design and build a luxury lifestyle ship from scratch as a solution. The company seeks to capitalize on the increase of people living on world cruises[6], and remote work trends post-pandemic.[7]
Facilities and amenities edit
The ship design has a large marina with direct access to the water's edge[8]. There is a wellness center complete with a day spa, meditation rooms, infrared saunas, gym, running track, yoga, Pilates, and meditation rooms. There are 3 pools, 20 restaurants and bars, a 10,000 book library, a micro-brewery, and a hydroponic garden. Most residences will come with their own kitchenette. For entertainment, there will be an art space, golf simulator, bowling alley, movie theatre, and live music performances. There will also be a variety of classes available on board, as well as organized shore excursions. MV Narrative provides internet access throughout the whole ship, including every residence.[9]
Contracts edit
In August 2022 Storylines Global Inc. and Brodosplit Shipyard signed a newbuild contract for 2025 delivery of the residence cruise ship.[10]
