The Disney Wish is one step closer to completion. Imagineers and the team at Meyer Werft celebrated the ship’s Keel Laying.
Keel laying is a maritime tradition where a newly minted coin is placed under the keel of the ship. The ceremony is said to bring good fortune to the ship and its crew.

The commemorative coin features Captain Minnie. She will also be featured as the beloved Bow Character on the ship.
