Myrtle Beach, S.C., will soon get a casino ship to replace the SunCruz ship that sailed at the port until recently folding under financial problems.
Robert Weisberg, a former owner of the SunCruz ship, has formed a new company that is negotiating with the Little River port to return the ship to the area, the Myrtle Beach Sun reports. The ship is undergoing repairs in Florida, but the new company will begin hiring soon.
No word on whether the ship will include a poker room, but Weisberg indicated that it would offer the same games that the SunCruz formerly offered.
