A beloved chapter of cruise history has opened a fascinating new opportunity for maritime investors and ocean enthusiasts as the former Majesty of the Seas is officially offered for sale at an asking price of 40 million dollars. Listed on the Miami-based boat sales platform Yachtworld as a 1992 custom 880-foot cruise ship, the iconic vessel presents a rare chance to acquire a classic ocean liner featuring timeless naval architecture.

Constructed in France by the renowned Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, the 73,941 gross ton vessel can host up to 2,767 passengers alongside 912 crew members. The listing images reveal unmistakable signatures of its heritage, including the iconic Crown and Anchor emblem inside the pool, the signature circular Viking Crown Lounge perched high above the top deck, and the aft-facing rock-climbing wall. Across its decks, the ship remains equipped with extensive guest amenities such as two swimming pools, four whirlpools, a theater, a casino, fitness facilities, and six distinctive dining venues.

Originally costing 300 million dollars to build in 1992, equivalent to over 720 million dollars today when adjusted for inflation, the current 40 million dollar asking price represents a discount of nearly 95 percent. This positions the liner at an intriguing 541 dollars per gross ton, creating exceptional value for prospective operators seeking an established cruise platform.

Following its departure from Royal Caribbean in late 2020 and subsequent ownership under Greek ferry operator Seajets, the vessel has maintained a notable presence in maritime circles. Whether acquired by an innovative boutique operator, converted for alternative hospitality uses, or preserved by private buyers, the sale highlights the enduring charm of classical cruise engineering.
