MIAMI BEACH_American Cruise Lines promotes “Closer to Home” with its fleet of paddlewheelers, modern riverboats and coastal ships navigating U.S. waterways. Now, with “Project Blue,” the pre-eminent American cruise line will be closer to home than ever.

Here at Seatrade Cruise Global, company president and CEO Charles B. Robertson spoke to the media about the new initiative.

​“Project Blue started as a design challenge to create a boat small enough for New England harbors and stable enough for the Alaska Inside Passage, with a draft shallow enough for the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway,” said Robertson in a press release. “These boats can run almost anywhere, and because there will be 12 of them, they will be deployed all over the United States.”
