The Nov. 4 event included music, makeup, 'shelfies,' a few stadium-style waves and Champagne showers once the adjudicator announced the record was official. The previous record was a gathering of 378 merpeople set in the UK in June.
Part of Valiant Lady's first PortMiami voyage
The Bimini event was part of Valiant Lady's 'mermaiden' voyage from its new winter home, PortMiami. Sailors (passengers) were invited to take part in the world record attempt and mermaid beauty pageants onboard and at the Beach Club.
First Honduras call
Virgin's second ship made its Miami debut Oct. 30 before departing for Cozumel, Bimini and Roatán, the first time the brand has called at Honduras. There, the ship was greeted with celebrations and music.
Valiant Lady will be sailing on six- and eight-night cruises to the Caribbean and Mexico through April.
