“MV Deutschland was the first ship we inspected in 2017 when BSM decided to step into the cruise arena. Back then, with zero (!) cruise ships in management and the idea to form a dedicated company not even in our heads, only 6 years later – with 14 ships under management, a great team, great clients, and a great reputation in the market – we finally welcome MS Deutschland under our wings. Thank you all again for this!”
