K1200S Posted February 15, 2016 #1678 Share Posted February 15, 2016 In this thread it has been said Harmony is wider then Oasis by 3m. Either that is not true or RCI has not put out correct info. Max beam for Harmony is listed as 154 ft while Oasis is listed as 213 ft. Would love accurate info. Pete Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete That's the typical apples and oranges comparison you see on on Royal's documentation. 154 feet is measured at the waterline and 213 feet is measured at the bridge wings. In other words, you cannot compare the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete I agree, but you have to keep in mind that "normal" and Royal Caribbean don't go together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 meters isn't for the full 1187 feet because of the bow taper. It still is a weight gain or RCI is building a ship using some magic we don't know about.

Pete Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk The max beam and length is traditionally reported on all watercraft since they are critical for clearance. I expect to hear the dimensional difference in detail at launch since Harmony will take over bragging rights from Allure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pointler Posted February 17, 2016 #1687 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I searched #harmonyoftheseas on Twitter and it seems a lot of people are heading to the shipyard today to get a look at the ship. Should be an interesting day! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I would change would be to make it a clear slide. IMO, that would make it even more awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
