sea princess dry dock

If you Google Sea Princess Dry Dock you will find a number of references. One that is especially intriguing is that National Geographic apparently did a documentary of the most recent refurbishment of the Sea Princess.

As said above, National Geographic taped a show called "Worlds Toughest Fixes" and it showed the repairs and changes made during drydock. Most of the show dealt with a leaking propeller shaft seal which ended up being due to a pinched water line that runs the length of the shaft. I live in the bay area and happened to watch them lowering Sea Princess back into the water following her drydock. They then took her out into the bay and ocean for sea trials, which was interesting to watch, because you never see a cruise ship going so fast in the bay or turning sharp turns. Would of been a fun ride.

Yes She has Cruises right up to 24 May 2015.

 

That might be the next Dry Dock 24 May 2015 in Brisbane, thats where the Dawn had hers in May last year. We will have to wait and see, hopefully they will make changes along the same lines as the Sun.
