Storylines is an innovative residential community at sea, set to sail in 2024.
Storylines founders Shannon Lee and Alister Punton started with a vision to give global travelers the ability to live out their passion for exploration while still maintaining work, family and home life. The result was in creating a residential ship that enables global citizens to live a healthy and active life of freedom; enjoying immersive life-changing experiences while traveling the world from the comfort of their home at sea.
Storylines’ MV Narrative ship is 741 feet long and 98 feet wide with 547 fully-furnished residences ranging in size from 237 to 1,970 square feet. Homes are available as outright purchases with pricing from around $1M to $8M. Owners will enjoy a complete all-inclusive experience with world-class dining, cultural enrichment programming, and state-of-the-art wellness and fitness facilities available 24-hours a day.

The facilities also include a hospital for emergency medicine and a helicopter landing pad for medical evacuations.
Green Initiatives
Storylines’ innovative green technologies will ensure MV Narrative is one of the greenest passenger vessels in operation. The ship has been sustainably designed with liquid natural gas propulsion - (LNG), the most environmentally friendly option currently available for powering ships. Other initiatives include converting waste into energy and growing produce onboard at the solar powered hydroponic garden. A first-of-its kind zero waste farmer’s market will also be available with locally sourced products where everything is compostable or recyclable.
