Lloyd555 Posted July 30, 2013 #126 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Yes there is. Check the images under google, "building Norwegian Breakaway". The attached picture shows the back of Hall 6 and Getaway. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd555 Posted August 2, 2013 #128 Share Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) Finally, the first of 74 building blocks has been put in place in the yard's covered building dock. Turn on the other webcam any time now! Edited August 2, 2013 by Lloyd555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEIx15x8 Posted August 2, 2013 #131 Share Posted August 2, 2013 A YouTube video already posted. Thanks for finding that. Looks like Richard was video conferencing into the ceremony but no sign of Adam at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd555 Posted August 2, 2013 #132 Share Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) More images from the keel laying ceremony. Notice the blocks behind the white curtain and the ceremony's keel block. So that is what's been going on behind the Getaway. :D It looks like they've laid down a big chunk of keel and started building. Do I see what looks like engine room components? What do you think?

UNV-IT!!! Posted August 2, 2013 #133 Share Posted August 2, 2013 So cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overtyme Posted August 2, 2013 #134 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Is it me? They talk about the keel laying as the placement of the first block, however, in the background of the second image, it looks like there is another block already in place to be joined to the block that was lowered down already. It seems like this may be the ceremony, but that this process may have already begun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall-Cruiser Posted August 2, 2013 #135 Share Posted August 2, 2013 A YouTube video already posted. Lloyd - Thanks for sharing all this. It does look like as we have mentioned here before that they did do a lot more than we could see. Again the reason why the webcam id not show the back of Hall 6. The big difference that I see here compared to other keel laying at MW (Breakaway & Getaway) is that other blocks have already been put into the building dock.

That's exactly the point I tried to make in earlier postings. This was just a ceremony to keep in tradition, but blocks have already been put in place. Still its finally good to see something for a change and some excitement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEIx15x8 Posted August 2, 2013 #137 Share Posted August 2, 2013 I can't tell about the back block in the second image but the one on the side does not appear to be on the normal blocks. I wonder if they started flipping blocks over and positioning them down there but haven't actually put them in place yet. This may be the first officially placed on her blocks (really not sure what the proper name for them are) and the other's will not be put in place to connected to her.

This may be the first officially placed on her blocks (really not sure what the proper name for them are) and the other's will not be put in place to connected to her. I agree with your assessment. It looks like other blocks are being stored in the dock area, but that this was the first to be positioned for actual assembly. That would explain the ceremony and press releases.

Lloyd555 Posted August 2, 2013 #139 Share Posted August 2, 2013 And more (keel) blocks on the way up the Elms to MW today. [No chance that they are for the Sonne scientific ship?] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEIx15x8 Posted August 2, 2013 #140 Share Posted August 2, 2013 And more (keel) blocks on the way up the Elms to MW today. [No chance that they are for the Sonne scientific ship?] I think so, if you connect those pieces it seems like it would be too wide to be the bottom of the other ship.

Overtyme Posted August 2, 2013 #141 Share Posted August 2, 2013 this all seems to line-up with what I think will happen towards the end of August or early September. It's just a guess, but they'll probably share more details and new features and show construction progress in the same session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough as Leather Posted August 2, 2013 #143 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Wonder how long we'll have to wait for Meyer Werft to change the view within the MW hall. Or will we have to wait? ... LMAO! Love the minions... especially the one in the 'updated' webcam image. I too am looking forward to the assembly of the blocks. Or should I say CONTINUED assembly. Looks like some assembly has started.
