Cpt Des Posted March 27, 2012 #1 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Might seem a silly question, but my wife Jane is a rather good dart player (competition) and was wondering if she was able to keep up her practice whilst away on the Voyager for 3 weeks from Nov 5th. There are competitions coming up and she didn't want to get rusty.;);) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVU Posted March 27, 2012 #3 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Because of the danger of a dart, I think I read sometime ago, they are not allowed. Not everyone is good at throwing a dart......... Edited March 27, 2012 by CVU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilgo Surfer Posted March 27, 2012 #4 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Because of the danger of a dart, I think I read sometime ago, they are not allowed. Not everyone is good at throwing a dart......... There are computerized dart boards with the plastic tip darts that keeps score automatically. I've seen them in some bars and they are actually real darts, just with plastic tips screwed on. Some ships may have this in the arcade... Just a guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted March 27, 2012 #5 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Yes, I'm sure they would consider darts to be a "weapon" of sorts. Highly doubt their existence on a cruise ship. In 10 cruises I have never seen one. *shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crookedhalo Posted March 27, 2012 #6 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Actually, if I remember correctly, the pubs on the Freedom class do have dart alleys, but don't believe this will help the OP;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I ever have seen, especially since the arcades are in the teen area, the darts would get lost. She is just going to have to take a break from it.

Rare BecciBoo Posted March 27, 2012 #8 Share Posted March 27, 2012 There is a dart board next to the bar in the Pig and Whistle Pub. To the right in the back, rather hidden away, its like a long hall. Or it was when she was in Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKeith Posted March 27, 2012 #9 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I'm sure the Celebrity Century class have dart boards on the sports court. Never seen one on a RCI ship though which is a shame. Would be great to head into the The Pig and Whistle/Dog and Duck etc and have a game of darts with a few pints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I have never seen a dart board on a RCI ship. I know Freedom's sister, Liberty, doesn't have one. I know this because we spent a lot of time in that pub hallway during an art tour. The only dart board I remember seeing on a cruise ship was the Celebrity Summit this past November. Although, it's probably not there anymore. They just built a restaurant in that space during the recent refurbishment. Edited March 27, 2012 by Aquahound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BecciBoo Posted March 27, 2012 #15 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Thank you Google! I just found this: http://www.cruisereport.com/crReview.aspx?id=121 This is a guys review of Voyager and he specifically mentions the dart board: Be sure to check out the Pig and Whistle Pub. This is a great English pub with great drinks, entertainment and even a dartboard! The review was from 2001 though, so it may not be used anymore but at least it confirms that it was on the wall and I was not hallucinating:D Maybe the OP's wife can bring her tourney darts and use it with permission.

The Bull and Bear Pub features a dart room and a guitar entertainer at night Also found this photo: you will notice a chalk board in the back right corner, that is the hallway, they must keep score on the chalkboard as the dartboard is down past it. Here's another and you can see the hall and chalk board: And I just found one on Mariner also in teh Wig and Gavel: You can clearly see the scorboard in the hall on the left in that one.

Sequim88 Posted March 27, 2012 #17 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) 24 photos of Pig & Whistle on Voyager at Voyager-class.com and I could not spot a dartboard. Wondering if they maybe DO have one but it is put up only by request? Voyager Class Pub Pics Two Poets on Navigator and Wig & Gavel on Mariner bot have same chalkboard looking thing in the back hallway.
