CTKath Posted July 13, 2013 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Anyone have any feed back on this gentleman as Cruise Director? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbb Posted July 13, 2013 #2 Share Posted July 13, 2013 If you are a sports fan of any team and any sport, he will be able to give you scores while you are aboard. Most of the time he can tell you sports news without looking it up! If you love baseball, he's the man to talk to; he was quite good when a little younger. He has also been in place to tell all of us goodbye when we left the ship the last morning and is often there to welcome us back from a port stop.

Fetchpeople Posted July 13, 2013 #3 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Is delighful, personable and an accessable CD. Runs a really pleasant Trvia game. Always a gentleman. You will be well taken care of if he is your CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacheco18 Posted July 13, 2013 #4 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Terrific Very organized He runs a tight ship We loved him Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
globevest Posted July 13, 2013 #5 Share Posted July 13, 2013 David is very approachable and available for questions. We have enjoyed sailing with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TERRIER1 Posted July 13, 2013 #6 Share Posted July 13, 2013 One of my favorites along with Dottie. David would get up early for a sail in and give you a historical and current perspective of the city. He was great upon entering Venice. He also has a sense of humor in Trivia and doesn't take the game as life and death like others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kissing Seahorses Posted July 13, 2013 #7 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I have noticed he often has a very studied and precise diction, which always distracts me a bit and reminds me of my childhood minister, other times he has a more natural speaking style. Not a criticism, just an observation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaCroisiereS'amuse Posted July 13, 2013 #8 Share Posted July 13, 2013 He's s good as Dottie and Nolan..... Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willidc Posted July 13, 2013 #9 Share Posted July 13, 2013 +1 to all of the positive comments above. We have had him on two cruises so far and will be sailing with him on Baltic Odyssey on Marina next month. We had the good fortune to have him giving us commentary while we were sailing into Venice at sunrise this past May. I know the man must sleep sometime and somewhere, but it is as if he is always around during the cruise if you need his expertise or just to smile and greet you. And when he says "8 o'clock", you can set your watch by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuAnn Posted July 13, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 13, 2013 a great Trivia game! If there is a ? regarding his answer (someone thinks it's wrong or has an additional answer that they think could work) he goes to the trouble to research it and get back to the group the next Trivia game with the answer! Really appreciate that extra effort!! LuAnn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2onboardagain Posted July 13, 2013 #11 Share Posted July 13, 2013 We will always remember his reading of "The Night Before Christmas" this past Christmas Eve on Marina and the fruit cake skit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dicksadiver Posted March 28, 2014 #12 Share Posted March 28, 2014 When it comes to announcing the sale of Bingo Cards, nobody can't top David! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadPirateRobert Posted April 7, 2014 #13 Share Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) Just off Marina and I thought he was great. Very friendly and helpful. Best of all he keeps his PA announcements short and infrequent. :) Edited April 7, 2014 by DreadPirateRobert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceansandseas Posted April 7, 2014 #14 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I thought he was very good. Do not do trivia though. As another poster said, he is really visible around the ship and is also approachable. DreadPirateRobert - you just got off the Marina where he is now CD. Could I ask who the assistant CD was. Is she/he new and does she/he do a show. Thanks for any information. o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roothy123 Posted April 7, 2014 #15 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Liked him a lot - doesn't try too hard to be amusing or entertaining like one CD did - just did his job well, was personable, knowledgeable, and very approachable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountain grandma Posted April 8, 2014 #16 Share Posted April 8, 2014 One of our favorites for all of the reasons already posted here. We have enjoyed him as CD several times and he never disappoints. Billie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabrefan Posted April 9, 2014 #17 Share Posted April 9, 2014 David is very easy to talk to and friendly. He is always around when in port and leaving the ship for the day. He is a true professional. Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orchestrapal Posted April 9, 2014 #20 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I love his one liners after each show "if you travel do it first class because if you don't your children will" Thanks for reminding me of that great saying.
