Very cool! :D

[Cruiser Bruiser]

Wow, she looks really tall in that middle shot. I want to sail this ship!

[GUEST080219]

Just wow, now I am even more exciting.

[NJ Johnny]

Can't wait to sail!

[Zimomiller]

Thanks for the update and link.

 

I figured that this had to be happening soon considering the accelerated delivery schedule and the advanced prgrogress being mad on the Getaway blocks.

 

It is truly amazing the speed with which these mammoth ships are put together.

[SliceOfLife]

Awesome! Thanks for posting the new update. I can't wait to sail her in May!! :D

I agree! They said they had the bow lowered into place in just 30 minutes!

That picture has been scrunched. If you click on it for a bigger version you can see the real perspective.

If you look close enough on one of those pictures you can see where someone already put out a towel on a pool deck chair. Crap!

Joking aside, if you look closely at this pic the Haven seems to have a roof???

:D Funnnnny!

[Snowrose]

the ship will be pulled to the other end of the dock in order to give space for the first block of Norwegian Getaway.

 

They're really moving! :D

[Journey11]

Wow, just Wow. Thanks for posting this update.

What's the sunken area in the bow ?

Best guess I have is the crew area. Would not be surprised to see a pool appear there. ;)

Looks like it will be the windless and anchor chain storage. The "Cover" won't be installed until they are in place. The windless and anchor chain are huge and take up a lot of room

Yes, a retractable roof, it will come in handy for those NYC winters!! There was an update about that a few months ago.

[kerrytens]

Wow, this ship is coming along!!!

 

Thanks for posting the photo, Mike.

Unless my eyes are deceiving me, it looks like there will be a roller coaster on the top deck:cool:

Blue and red looped thing is part of the water slides...there will also be a track for the rope course that you would tether to...no roller coaster (that we know of).

Although that would be seriously cool

[Cruisercl]

Very exciting! Can't wait to sail on her in April on the TA...:)

Thanks for the show.
