Windstar Cruises has a new mascot.
On Christmas Day, the company unveiled Windstar, the “show jumping horse who’s beyond ordinary.” The horse already has its own Instagram page, and the cruise line encouraged fans to follow along.
The cruise line’s new mascot is a collaboration with international show jumper Kelli Cruciotti-Vanderveen and Serenity Farm Show Stables in Wellington, Florida.
So far, the company hasn’t revealed many details about what the partnership entails. But Chris Prelog, president of Windstar Cruises, said he was excited for the horse to be “part of the company.”
“Not only will I be competing with Windstar in the competition arena, but we will be really trying to give the passengers of Windstar Cruises a unique experience of onboarding show jumping to them,” says Cruciotti-Vanderveen in an Instagram video announcing the horse.
