Two will be built in 1988, and three in 1989. A contract for the first of the two has been awarded to Blount Marine of Warren, R.I., builder of the other Spirit vessels. CI plans to homeport this vessel in Los Angeles. The con- tract for the second vessel to be built this year is expected to be awarded soon. A special committee is evaluating port cities for assign- ment of Spirit vessels. The Spirit of New York has re- cently completed its inaugural sea- son carrying about 180,000 passen- gers. It was named an outstanding passenger vessel of 1987 by Mari- time Reporter and Engineering News (January 1988 issue, page 23), and is regarded by maritime experts as one of the finest vessels of this type in operation. According to Richard O'Leary, president of CI, all future vessels will be of this design. Presently nearing completion at Blount Shipyard in Warren is the seventh ship in the Spirit line, the 192-foot Spirit of Chicago, a 600- passenger sister ship to the Spirit of New York, which is scheduled to begin service in Chicago's Lake Michigan this month.
