Oosterdam post-dry dock?

[PZetz]

Anyone have any feedback from the post-dry dock Oosterdam? Would love to know how she's looking!! Thanks...

I believe it is on it's first cruise right now. Be patient.

Actually the first cruise was the 4 day reposition which I think ended Saturday but the OP may need to wait a bit. I love the Oosterdam. It always looks good to me.

We just came off the 4-day Vancouver to San Diego Oosterdam cruise. The "wet docking" was for a topside tarting-up and some engine room work. We noticed that much of the white superstructure was repainted, in particular the overhead roofing above the verandahs, and there seemed to have been some blue hull repainting done. Otherwise, internally it was in good condition with no sign of wear. We enjoyed the trip and had excellent sunny weather all the way down the coast, with just some rocking and rolling on the first sea day out of Victoria - even saw some whales. As usual, the HAL crew were busy painting and cleaning on deck throughout the voyage - they do maintain the ships well.

Thanks for the report Flying Dragon!

We were last aboard in January and she was in fine shape then from

what we could tell. :D

Thanks for the report - I've been wondering how the O looks, too. I read a couple of reviews from September in which there were complaints about a lot of wear and tear, dirty worn furniture, etc. Sounded like she needed a little sprucing up or else it was just overly critical nit-pickers.

We are looking forward to returning to the Oosterdam next month. Good to hear that she has had some recent attention!
