Question regarding drydock

[bldsld]

Does anyone have specifics as to what is going to happen to the triplets in drydock? I have read a variety of things speculated, but I'm curious how extensive the renovations will be.

 

Is Seabourn really retrofitting full-size verandas to replace the French balconies?

 

Thanks!

Wow! I never heard that rumor - it would really be nice if full sized verandas would be an option. All I have heard is flat screen TVs and DVD players.....

[bldsld]

I can't recall where I read that, Matt. It seems like a huge task to undertake, but I thought someone on this Board had posted to that effect.

 

Apologies if I am wrong....

This was extensively studied before the present balcony solution was adopted. The bottom line problem is the weight and balance equation. You can't add a lot of weight up high on a floating object, for reasons that are too terrible to contemplate.

 

No, I think you'll find that the rather elegant solution on the sisters will continue to provide most, if not quite all, the advantages of a veranda.

Have anyone heard about the dry dock of the Destiny in Sept? Just what will they be doing to her? I can't find anything about it? Someone, let me know, please.

What is the Destiny? Laura, this is the Seabourn board!;)

 

Seriously, what is the Destiny?

Sorry about this. Destiny is a ship with Carnival.

[bldsld]

No problem, Laura---thanks for the clarification. I had never heard of the ship (but I like the music of Destiny's Child....what can I say?).

 

Thanks.

Denyse~~~WELL, I think we've all been referring to our balconies as "French"....

I found out they are called, "JULIET balconies"......

Pleeeze help me find a Romeo so HE can sing to me!!

Hugs your way!

Martita,

 

Do you mean to say that the photo of your 'evil' twin at her Juliette balcony in the spa robe and a tiara didn't send some Romeos swooning?

 

Jane (not that you would want her castoffs, however)

Jane~~~'alas, the "swooner's" were on the Dublin Pier below, installing our new Pride satelite dish.....the "Evil twin" gave quite a performance and even received applause! They never noticed me......on the balcony next door fully and properly dressed!

As to "her" castoffs, it would depend! hahaha
