Thanks for the quick response as I know it’s late there for you. Your photos are always much appreciated. Below are two snapshots highlighting the suite area I mentioned.

@topanga49er @Ourusualbeach The deck 17 suites don’t appear to have enough shade over their respective balconies. That is at least for the OS, GS and JYs on either side of deck 17. 
Maybe next time @Eremita85 is out there he could treat us with even closer up photos of that area and the balcony covers 😀. Thanks in advance.

Which suites do you mean, the loft suites? Finki was faster once again, I have my inclining test photos still waiting for editing and posting. Here are some photos of the loft suite area from the same day.

Likely in Dec. The delivery should be later this month.

The delivery could be a little late, since the second sea trials are late as well.

Some photos from yesterday evening. 

30.9.2023

The LNG bunkering vessel Kairos arrived at the shipyard this morning. I heard that the bunkering itself will not take place until tomorrow.

The weather was cloudy, pretty windy and somewhat rainy at the times.

Thanks for sharing your photos. Those are Icon 2 blocks on Meri right? 

Yep, lots of Icon 2 blocks already on the shipyard 🙂 

By the way, the LNG bunkering vessel Kairos will arrive at the shipyard tomorrow: https://pilotonline.fi/traffic-info/pilotages?vessel=kairos

I saw one of the lifeboats on a test run when I recently went to shoot Meri's arrival at the shipyard:

Do you know when the 2nd sea trial is scheduled?

No, at this moment I have no clue anymore 😄

New (with some old footage added) video courtesy Ship Media. There are now more Lifeboats loaded on. Perhaps getting ready for the next Sea Trial soon.

 

 

There is now three lifeboats at the back so one more added at least. Not sure if there is any of the port side yet. Last time when I checked there wasn't any, but I saw two of them at the shipyard.

Sea trials could be start in week 37, but not sure about that.

Some new photos from yesterday. The name is also painted now on the back of the ship:

Save the date... Oct. 25, 2023.

 

Nick Weir will supposedly reveal all the Icon entertainment on this date.

Well at the same time that will be pretty much the date when the ship will be delivered to the Royal Caribbean, maybe a day later, Oct. 26.

Some photos from this morning.
