CEO Kelly,
I totally understand and share a lot of your concerns regarding the idea I am proposing but I do believe we can overcome them if we go about it the right way.  With these concerns in mind, my proposal will be designed in a way that will start the division out small and grow around any obstacles that come up and allow it to be easily disbanded if it becomes more of a burden than a benefit.  He is the first draft of my proposal so I am willing to change it based on the boards suggestions.

OSI Tourism and Cruise Division

My proposal is to create a small but organized group of OSI Liners and Yachts.  My proposal is to start out small to allow the division to naturally evolve based on any pros and cons it experiences.  I will mainly detail my idea for starting the division out(Phase One) and write down some possibilities for expansion later down the line(Phase Two).
Phase One
Phase one is primarily meant to be an testing phase in which we try and gauge the advantages and hardships of creating a more substantial and permanent Tourism and Cruise Division.  Some general goals to accomplish in this phase is as follows:

• Seek volunteers within OSI to captain a small fleet of liners.  If the division ends up getting disbanded the volunteers would still be able to use their liners on their own so the ships will not be wasted even the division itself turns out to not a viable opportunity.  
  
• Develop and test potential cruise routes.
  
• Gauge the dangers of the routes developed and adjust accordingly.  You mentioned the need for escorts as one of your concerns and while I do agree we should create a dedicated escort wing for the division I do believe a well equiped liner would be able to perform a lot of routes solo.  We should create a dedicated database for liner captain to report any hostile encounters and which route they happened on.  If certain routes prove dangerous we would assign escort accordingly.
  
• Open communications with other corporations that might be able to help supply our liners and see if any deals can be made.  Some obvious candidates would be Orbital Spa and Cruise as well as Synth Foods.  One of your concerns you brought up concerned OS&C being resistant to cooperation might not be as much of an issue if we try and offer some mutually beneficial deals.  
  Adjust to any unforeseen circumstances.
  

Phase Two
A lot of Phase Two depends on the results of Phase One but I will list some possible goals during this phase:

• Construct/expand and supply resorts on popular Zoner bases such as Planet Gran Canaria.  This may require contracting with other corporations.
  
• Expand liner fleet, possibly creating company owned ships that can be captained by any OSI member.  This will allow those who do not want to create a liner themselves to occasionally contribute to this division.
  
• Possibly use the promise of increased tourism to help negotiate passage back into Rheinland space.

I am willing to take any suggestions the board may have on the matter.
