kangforpres Posted September 28, 2013 #3 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Well we are on the Westerdam April 14-28, for a Panama Canal repo. I think the drydock is right before this in the Bahamas after the Caribbean season is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kangforpres Posted September 29, 2013 #7 Share Posted September 29, 2013 yea it's April 15th, not the 14th for the Panama Canal cruise. So drydock should end on the 14th. Any info on where the drydocks are performed? I know the Amsterdam will have its done in San Francisco this December. -Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll sail the Eurodam 45 days after dry dock. Does that mean we gonna have a brand new ship ? LoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtl513 Posted September 29, 2013 #11 Share Posted September 29, 2013 What does dry dock involve basically ?Is it just cleaning and fixing stuff on the ship. Yes, maintenance inside and outside for "routine" 7-day dry docks. For longer ones there are sometimes structural changes - adding cabins, revamping public areas, etc. Since the E-dam's is 11 days there may be a little more than routine but less than major work done. Copper10-8/John may have some information about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kangforpres Posted September 29, 2013 #12 Share Posted September 29, 2013 The Amsterdam Dec. 2013 drydock will be at BAE Systems San Francisco. There is a park near the shipyard and I will try to get some pictures and post on CC A "drydock" is usually longer the 7 days since the ship is completely taken out of the water so everything under the waterline can be worked on. -Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll sail the Eurodam 45 days after dry dock. Does that mean we gonna have a brand new ship ? LoL This has been discussed extensively on the boards. The main purpose is below the waterline work, painting and so on as well as major interior work like engine work. It can also include lots of "soft" work like carpet replacement, etc. Sometimes major structure stuff or redesigns have been done, but there hasn't been any discussions of new ideas, other than adding Retreat Cabanas on the Vistas. Occasionally other critical work like galley equipment repair, nav equipment repair or replacement and other items that can't be done under way.

Avsec Posted December 17, 2014 #22 Share Posted December 17, 2014 See this Holland American press release web site for what is planned while the ship is in dry dock. http://www.hollandamerica.com/news/NewsRelease.action?newsReleaseId=1169 As well as having its bottom cleaned and re-painted, I also understand that Volendam is having a pair of new propellers fitted.

Despegue Posted December 17, 2014 #24 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Anybody know if " Mix" will be added during the Zuiderdam drydock in April? It does seem Zuiderdam will have deck 11 stateroom additions, general furniture and carpeting refurbishing and a hull paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PathfinderEss Posted December 18, 2014 #25 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Anybody know if " Mix" will be added during the Zuiderdam drydock in April? It does seem Zuiderdam will have deck 11 stateroom additions, general furniture and carpeting refurbishing and a hull paint. Only the S and R class ships have 'MIX'. That would be Statendam, Ryndam, Maasdam, Veendam, Zaandam, Volendam, Rotterdam, Amsterdam. As far as the Vista and Signature class, I believe none will be retrofited with 'MIX' and that would be Oosterdam, Westerdam, Zuiderdam, Noordam, Eurodam and Nieuw Amsterdam.
