1234495507 0faee1c1a6 o Cruise Ship Built at HomeFrancois Zanella, a 58 year old former mine worker has built a cruise ship at his home in Morsbach, Moselle in North-Eastern part of France.

He started building his ship on August 10-th, 1994. By that time, he had already spent more than 3,500 hours designing in excruciating detail all the components of the ship. It took him 11 long years to build the ship, a process that was completed on June 23, 2005. On that day his ship started sailing from port Sarreguemines.

Francois built his ship based on the model of Royal Caribbean’s 1992 cruise ship Majesty of the Seas, but on a smaller scale. Because of that, he also named his ship Majesty of the Seas. Building this ship was a dream come true for Francois, a dream for which he happily spent 25,000 hours of his life.

He also became quite famous in France because of this project. One of the main TV channels in the country – France 3 – created a special program named Thalassa which followed his work during the construction process. He received considerable amount of fan mail because of that.

Currently Francois is enjoying the fruits of his labor by traveling around the world in his own cruise ship – Majesty of the Seas.
