The Roaring Twenties, 1925 to be precise. The American age of Prohibition is in full swing. Alcoholic beverages are illegal to sell in the Americas, but that does not mean that ships heading to the Cartune Isles can’t serve them. That is what some foreign companies are doing to spite the American liners forbidden to sell liquor on their ships. The British-owned, Cartune Island maintained company, The Pacific-Oriental Steam Navigation Company has chartered a route from the port of Long Beach, to Port Gallagher in what is now modern-day Cartoonia.
Welcome aboard lucky passenger (no matter how you got your tickets)! Feeling tired of prohibition in America, or even your own country (if they implemented prohibition)? Want to waste all of your worries away in a single bottle? Want to see the Cartune Isles, or look for new opportunities? Don’t fret darlings! The S.S. Fascination is here to serve all of your alcoholic needs. Come upstairs to the bar, enjoy the jazz band and their selection of tunes they will perform, dance the Charleston till your feet drop! The party doesn’t stop once we reached our destination, The Cartune Isles has officially ruled against prohibition since they are a colony of the US and they don’t have to conform to any state-wide legislation without proper representation.
Whether you are a rich traveler, an immigrant to find job opportunities, or just a tourist in need of some alcohol, The S.S. Fascination has a little something for everyone! Have fun, get drunk, and enjoy the Cartune Isles and its rapid development.

Crew

Just so people who want to become stokers know, this steamship just converted its fuel source from coal to the more efficient oil (as it was becoming more optimal by the 1920s) so the need for coal stokers will not (I REPEAT NOT) be needed.

Deck Crew (Helmsman, Quartermaster, Master-at-arms, etc.): $25 per month plus room, board, and meals (Crew Quarters). Rotating days off.
