A small and
relatively young cruise line, Imperial Majesty Cruise Line
acquired the former ocean liner "OceanBreeze"
from the now defunct Premier Cruise Lines some years ago.
The vintage ship is deployed on year-round short cruises
to The Bahamas. The
21,486-ton, 604-foot-long OceanBreeze
occupies
a unique place in maritime history. Christened in 1954 by
Queen Elizabeth II, who chose the name Southern
Cross,
the vessel circled the globe, visiting ports in Australia,
New Zealand, the Caribbean, South Africa, the South
Pacific, and Europe.
In
1972, the ship was acquired by a Greek company, renamed ss
Calypso,
given a $16 million conversion and a new cruise itinerary
in the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and Alaska. On September
29, 1980, she was sold to the Gotaas Larsen Group of
Companies of Bermuda, who sailed her under the name ss Azure
Seas
until
May 1992. Purchased by Dolphin Cruise Lines in 1992 and
she was renamed Ocean
Breeze,
the ship cruised from Aruba to the southern Caribbean and
Panama Canal.
In 1999, the Ocean
Breeze
was
chartered by Imperial
Majesty Cruise Line.
In May 2000, she was purchased by Imperial
Majesty
and subsequently given a $3.5 million renovation that
added a modern tropical ambiance while restoring the
original splendour of this classic ship. In 2003 Regal
Cruises ceased operations and Imperial Majesty Cruises
purchased their only cruise ship - Regal Empress which
replaced the Ocean Breeze. Her ports of call are now
Fort Lauderdale and Nassau.
