As Disney Cruise Line (DCL) prepares for the 2024 launch of
its newest ship, Disney Treasure, the company revealed an artist rendering of
the vessel’s stern.
DCL officials made the announcement on Tuesday in Celebration,
Florida, sharing that Disney Treasure would maintain the cruise line’s tradition
of being adorned with beloved characters with the addition of Peter Pan and
Captain Hook to the stern.
The artist rendering shows Peter Pan using Tinker Bell’s
pixie dust to add the finishing touch to the ship’s stern filigree with a paintbrush
and paint bucket in hand. All the while, Captain Hook leans out a porthole with
an angry look on his face, covered in yellow paint.
In March, DCL announced a significant milestone in the
construction of Disney
Treasure, with a special keel laying ceremony at Germany's Meyer Werft
shipyard. The highlight was the placement of a newly-minted coin under the keel
of the ship by Philip Gennotte, portfolio project management executive, Walt
Disney Imagineering Germany.
The new vessel is scheduled for delivery in 2024 and will be
the second of three new ships planned through 2025. The Wish Class of DCL vessels
are powered by liquefied natural gas and feature approximately 1,254 guest
staterooms.
