MSC
Preziosa will
be christened in Genoa, Italy, on March 23, 2013 and, as the
four-month countdown to her arrival has already begun, MSC Cruises
is proud to announce the first of many innovative new features to be
found on board; the all new Doremi Castle Aqua Park and Vertigo,
MSC Cruises’ longest waterslide to date and the longest single
rider body waterslide on the seas.
In
prime space on deck 16, Doremi Castle Aqua Park boasts an
exhilarating pathway of water features on raised platforms including
sprays, fountains, water pistols and valves, each designed to splash,
soak and delight in equal measures. A drenching bucket builds
suspense by filling up drip by drip over unsuspecting heads, ready to
rain down from on high, while the area’s water cannons encourage
mischievous interaction between friends, old and new.
Next
to the park, thrill seekers can climb the stairs to deck 18 where
they can embark on the wildest ride on the waves. Guests will set off
on a journey down, around and even off the side of the ship, through
360 feet of fabulous twists and turns. Certain sections of the slide
have even been enhanced with translucent bands of color which catch
the light, creating a wonderful strobe effect as guests zip through
at top speed.
As
it shoots out over the edge of the ship, 27 foot long transparent
stretch of slide provides riders with amazing views of the water
below, but only if they’re brave enough to keep their eyes open!
Spectators who don’t dare ride for themselves can even have fun
from decks below by spotting the more adventurous whizzing through
the transparent section.
MSC
is a family company which prides itself on making sure that there’s
never a dull moment for families on board, and these latest features
guarantee bucket loads of fun for children, teenagers and the young
at heart.
