The first cruise ship<br />
The Homeric was built in 1986<br />
for Home Lines; in 1990 as the<br />
Westerdam it was converted for<br />
Holland America Line, USA and<br />
extended by 40 metres to 244<br />
metres. Never before had a cruise<br />
liner of this size been extended<br />
to this extent. The major conversion<br />
and extension work also<br />
included additional cabins, the<br />
two-storey show lounge and<br />
extended restaurants. Since 2002,<br />
the ship has been running under<br />
the name Costa Europe for the<br />
Italian Costa line.<br />
The Crown Odyssey delivered in<br />
1989 was one of the most luxurious<br />
cruise liners of its day for<br />
worldwide voyages. The owner<br />
who had placed the order was<br />
the Greek Royal <strong>Cruise</strong> Line.<br />
