sjbdtz Posted November 23, 2012 #226 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I wonder how they will clear under the Veranzano bridge in NY. They just made it with smaller ships and this one is taller. EPIC is taller than Breakaway, and made it with 9.7 feet to spare. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaun07 Posted November 23, 2012 #227 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I wonder if the new "breakaway plus" ship will fit under? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
time2cruise1 Posted November 23, 2012 #228 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I wonder if the new "breakaway plus" ship will fit under? If they can get down the river in Germany and under those bridges it will fit easily. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk - Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted November 24, 2012 #229 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Do you think they will raise the funnel higher and then add the stacks pipes. It looks like the slides are higher than the funnel and at this point it looks like the BBall court will be smoked out.:eek: This is all very disconcerting to me as I love seeing that big blue funnel above everything else.:rolleyes: I think the funnel will be as is but the sports court is going to be FULL of fumes from the smoke stack. I'm sure they're going to have to raise the exhaust pipes higher than up than the steel structure or add to it once the ship is floated out. When the ship is at sea fully the smoke usually wraps around the stack and curves down on the side of the ship away from the wind. In port there wouldn't be a problem unless it's really windy. I do agree the water slides in front of it do appear to be about even with the smoke stack. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted November 24, 2012 #230 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I wonder if the new "breakaway plus" ship will fit under? With Breakaway staying in NYC year round I doubt we'll see another larger version of it coming out of NYC again. Not sure where Breakaway Plus will be hanging out - maybe we'll get her here in Boston. Since NCL is expanding back into the Texas market one never knows if they'll throw a larger ship in a home port outside of Miami but serving the Caribbean. NCL concentrates a lot of their ships in the Caribbean except the summer when they're in Europe. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the larger Breakaway Plus never comes to the US and stays in the Med year round. I see the smaller ships branching out for NCL to other deployments across the globe including Asia and Australia. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indimini Posted December 3, 2012 #237 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I have to say, after watching the EPIC's build and all the challenges they had with the design and the shipyard, it's nice to see things going so smoothly for the Breakaway. Can't wait to explore her decks next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisercl Posted December 8, 2012 #243 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I recently read that the hull is being painted and that there are pictures. Is this true, does anyone have them or a link to see them? I would like to see them. Any progress is exciting! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
