A second former Renaissance Cruises vessel has entered service for Florida-based Oceania Cruises, which plans to complete a hat-trick in 2005.



The Insignia (ex-R One, built 1998) was recently named by Virginia Watters, wife of Oceania chairman Joe Watters, in Monte Carlo.



The event was hosted by Monaco´s Prince Albert, who talked about the emerging ties between Oceania, the Grimaldi family and the principality, where a semi-floating pier for the Oceania ships and other cruise vessels has been built.
