...lower, considering that the ship tourist gets room and board for a voyage of up to eleven days. The government-owned Italian Line has little to lose from this bargain-price experiment because the 500 tourist-class cabins in its four ships-the Michelangelo, Raffaello, Leonardo da Vinci and Cristoforo Colombo-have been sailing at only 20% occupancy. Italian Line officials figure that they may not make money on the students-food alone will cost up to $100 a head on each sailing -but that once introduced to the indulgent joys of sailing, young travelers will continue to choose nautical...
