The ship is being renamed the MSC Preziosa and will be deployed on cruises
around Greek island in March next year.
However, passengers will be unable to see Hannibal Gaddafi’s shark tank, as
the company is removing it along with his elaborate architectural touches.
“I personally don’t know why, but he wanted a shark tank,” Pierfrancesco Vago,
MSC’s chief executive, told The Financial
Times.
MSC, which spent nine months negotiating with Korean shipbuilder STX
Corporation over the sale, is the same company Hannibal Gaddafi had
chartered cruise ships from before ordering his own.
“They had great difficulty understanding that cruise ship holidays are sold a
year in advance, so there’s no way you could ever find availability of a
cruise vessel at the notice he gave,” Mr Vago said.
