Due to its highly specialized design, the vessel’s marina can only be used when conditions permit. Ideally, the marina will be fully operational in those ports where the waters are generally calm, in shallow water anchorages and in any protected waters where it is safe to dock.
The Storylines’ lifestyle has been in development since 2016 and with full-time operations underway since 2018. Our partners include industry experts with over 150 years ship building experience, established cruise operators, destination management services, as well port and hotel management provides. Together, Storylines brings to you a world-class, world-first option in lifestyle.
All cruise vessels undergo rigorous safety and maintenance schedules to make sure they are always at the top of their performance. Because of this, yearly schedules are set and cover not just breakages but set routine replacements and preventative maintenance.
The annual fees include costs to undergo such future things as vessel repainting and dry docking, when it comes to internal fit-outs only the common areas are considered and included for future ‘updating’. Residence updates will be by the cost of the residence owner.
Like an aeroplane, all maintenance issues are thought of in advance on a cruise ship. Many vessel repairs can be done successfully while in port or underway.
A high level of onboard security is maintained throughout the operation of the vessel and specific staffing varies based on our geographical location. In addition to security monitoring of all public areas, MV Narrative’s highly trained security staff ensure that your Home at Sea is always kept safe and sound. While in port, additional security is provided at both the port and vessel entry points.
Like all cruise liners, MV Narrative engages the services of special security teams whose vessels escorts us through any areas that could be potentially dangerous.
The safety equipment aboard MV Narrative is designed to meet or exceed the highest of international standards. In the unlikely event of an emergency, the vessel has a shipwide PA system and its highly trained staff is ready to handle any situation. In addition to navigational staff, the vessel features a full security team, safety cameras and ongoing emergency training.
