MSC Cruises has set a brand new Guinness World Record for assembling the longest line of LEGO ships ever aboard its new ship MSC World America.
The file try befell throughout MSC World America‘s journey from the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France — the place she has been beneath development for the final three years — to Miami, Florida.

The captain of MSC World America, Master Dino Sagani, alongside over 1,000 crew members meticulously constructed and lined up the LEGO ships, forming a 89 meter (about 292 ft) show that stretched alongside the ship’s World Galleria on deck 6 from aft to ahead. Each LEGO ship took a median of 5 minutes to assemble, including up and with a complete of 1,391 ships that added as much as roughly 7,000 minutes — or 116 hours — of effort from the crew.
While constructing the ships took time, assembling the complete record-breaking line was a feat of teamwork, and was accomplished in just below two hours. The course of was overseen by a Guinness World Records adjudicator to ensure the file was tried in accordance with the file tips.

The new file joins the 13,000 longest line data within the Guinness World Records database and also will be featured within the Guinness World Records 2026 e-book. As a recognition of their efforts, every MSC crew member who participated obtained an official Guinness World Records certificates and one of many LEGO ships concerned as a memento.
