See_again Posted September 5, 2012 #4 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I voted for the Dawn, but to be honest only because of the starboard side, the side with the dolphins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
time2cruise1 Posted September 5, 2012 #5 Share Posted September 5, 2012 The original is always the best. The Dawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver1975 Posted September 5, 2012 #6 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I am partial to the art on the Sun. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure Moon Posted July 14, 2014 #7 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I think the Sun has the best hull art because of it's stylization, coloring, placement, and size. But my favorite hull art is on the Pearl. I just love the colors, the design and size. The simplicity and size of the art on the Sun and Pearl make them so easy, for me, to identify from a distance.

flag fan Posted April 23, 2015 #8 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I voted for Pride of America but my favorite is really the great, late Pride of Hawaii (now disguised as the Norwegian Jade). I used to really dislike the NCL hull art as not appropriate for a cruise ship, but I have mellowed and now really like that NCL ships are distinctive.

DreamingBig1 Posted April 23, 2015 #11 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I am a big fan of Guy Harvey (Escape). However, the one that I love that isn't included is the Getaway. I really dig the mermaids on the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Sam Posted April 23, 2015 #13 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Not a big fan of the hull art overall, but it sure is a unique identifier of NCL. I like Sky the best. It has that Hawaii feel to it from when it used to be home-ported there and is simple in design. Not overdone like some of them. So if there has to be hull art, then for me, just keep it simple. Fun thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb Nahoumi Posted April 23, 2015 #14 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I love the Gem-----nice flowery design. Hull art makes NCL ships stand out from the somber white masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarpHarp Posted April 23, 2015 #17 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I'm also a Peter Max fan & the Breakaway looks marvelous in person. I'm looking forward to seeing the Escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExpatBride Posted April 23, 2015 #18 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I used to really dislike the NCL hull art as not appropriate for a cruise ship, but I have mellowed and now really like that NCL ships are distinctive. I feel the same way. I think it's tacky and prefer a more classic look, but perhaps I'll also come around in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shealea Posted April 23, 2015 #19 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I've always really liked the Breakaway hull art. I've never sailed on her. I like the fact that to me it represents the United States of America. I love the statue of liberty!!! And I have always wanted to visit New York!!! My son has been there and says it is a place that EVERYONE needs to visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted April 23, 2015 #20 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Escape will take the top spot once delivered. I totally agree. The Escape's hull art is spot on. I loved it the second I saw it. Unlike Norwegian Breakaway's which has grown on me considerably since I saw her in Southampton with it. :eek: I voted for Norwegian Spirit's hull art because the ship outwardly and inwardly holds a special place in my heart. Too bad NCL is waiting to go to Asia until the new Breakaway class ships come out because Asia is the Spirit's home. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momoftwinteens Posted April 23, 2015 #21 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I like the Sky best, but then, I am partial to her. She was my first NCL cruise. In fact, my first cruise ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
