I visited there over the weekend, picked up a few extra chips and listed them on (see link below). It's the old "Midnight Gambler" ship operating on Wilmington Island, between Savannah and Tybee Island and has been open less than a month.
It has two five-hour cruises most days and one of the skimpiest buffets I've ever seen. It was $13 to board, the ship took off 10 minutes late and the casino didn't open until we were an hour and 20 minutes out, making for a fairly short time at the tables.
There wasn't much of a crowd, which would fit the mold of many Georgia cruise ships.
This one had craps, blackjack, roulette (generic, well-used chips, as far as I could tell) and two tables set aside for poker, although only one was filled.
Maybe this one will do well - Savannah is a fantastic city - but it would have a better chance with a waterfront location downtown.
