Her sister ship, the Long Jie, which operates as a casino ship is for sale at only US $ 15 million !
Admitted Long Jie was not lengthened, like the Aquamarine, but she does retain her cabins plus has her funnel lounge still.
Aquamarine already has her new name painted on her stern with Panama showing as her port of registration.

Now Louis will instead have the Louis Majesty cruising out of Piraeus for 3- and 4-night cruises 1.4.-4.11.2011. Orient Queen will instead operate the itinary Louis Majesty would have been doing during this time. Cristal will operate her scheaduled 7-night cruises as planned, but will in march and november do the 3- and 4-night cruises that the company was planning to do with Aquamarine.
The Calypso will during the summer season also be deployed seasonally for the 3- and 4-night cruises out of Piraeus.

Her itineraries are 3,4, and 7-nights long; they cannot go very far from Acapulco without doing longer cruises, 10-14 nights. If they're trying to test and create a cruise market for Mexicans, it makes sense to start with smaller cruises, just to get people exposed to it without investing a lot of time and money.
The Mexicans with deeper pockets and are better-travelled (and there are lots of them) already fly to Miami or Europe to do more extensive cruises.
