Introducing MV ENRICO COSTA in Minecraft!
This is a 1:1 scale build of the Costa Cruise Ship MV ENRICO COSTA! This build has an interior and features her public spaces, lounges, and outdoor amenities.
Short History of MV Enrico Costa:
The MV Enrico Costa was a part of the Costa Line, which was known for its stellar reputation and good hospitality. She was originally built as the SS Provence for Marseilles-based Soc.Gen.Transports Maritimes. In 1965, she was purchased and renamed Enrico C and sailed from Genoa to Buenos Aires. From 1972 she was used for cruising only. The Enrico C was renamed Enrico Costa in 1987 and was extensively refitted in 1989. The Enrico Costa was sold to Starlauro in 1994, being renamed Symphony and served with them until Starlauro restyled themselves as Mediterranean Shipping Cruises (MSC). In 2000, Symphony was under charter to Golden Sun Cruises, and was renamed Aegean Spirit. In 2001, Symphony began operating as the Ocean Glory 1. She was prevented from sailing from Dover on 3rd July 2001, having failed safety and hygiene inspections. She was scrapped in 2001 at Alang after a 50 year long career.

Read this before you explore my ship builds:
1) I recommend you use the Natural Texture Pack for full immersion. I exclusively build in this texture pack to give my builds a unique look and feel. You can download the Natural Texture Pack here.
2) I build in 1:1 scale, but building in this scale comes with limitations. Some areas may be distorted or compromised due to scale and sizing when building in 1:1. Compromises have to be made in order to complete the build. Some areas may not resemble the actual ship and in those circumstances, I have to fictionalize some aspects about the build to "balance out" the build or to allow player interaction. I fully recognize 1:1 is not a perfect scale to build in but I personally find 1:1 to be the sweet spot for me.
3) I don't build cabins, engine rooms, or crew spaces. The reason is there is little to no information on what some of these spaces actually looked like, so I'd rather not spend the time to build something that I don't have information on. There is dead space on my builds because I primarily focus on class accommodations (Lounges, Dining Rooms, etc) and tend to focus less on passenger corridors, cabins, crew spaces, etc.
