Opua Kiwi Posted February 25, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) During our yacht race yesterday after work, our top mark near Russell was not far away from where she was anchored in the Bay of Islands. The Flag on the bow is very noticeable when looking up from sea level.:cool: Agree, looks good. Edited February 25, 2015 by Opua Kiwi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted February 25, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I agree also, I know some were disliking it when first seen but I think it is classy.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciencegirl1404 Posted February 25, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I agree, the new colours look great! It's not Oriana though, it's Aurora. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Kruzer Posted February 25, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) It's not Oriana though, it's Aurora. OOPS... Always get those 2 mixed up. My bad for not checking the schedule before posting.:mad: (I've edited the title to avoid further confusion) Edited February 25, 2015 by Kiwi Kruzer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisbane41 Posted February 26, 2015 #6 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I think it is sad and disappointing that this is being done to my favourite ships. Could you imagine if Princess took the seawitch logo off all their funnels and painted a depiction of the American flag on the front of their ships, could you imagine if Cunard painted out their matt black hulls and got rid of the red funnels. A cruise ships livery is part of its identity and people who have had holidays on these ships relate to that. It is also a symbol of recognition that you recognise the quality and good things about the company when you see how it looks. What this is saying to me is that P&O no longer care about their past identity and that this was a rushed and thoughtless decision to try and make their ships look less like Costa after the Costa Concordia capsized and sank in shallow waters.

That may be the best reason for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Kruzer Posted February 26, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted February 26, 2015 The sun has come around and is now shining on the hull . Gives a better idea of the colours. That funnel is a real blue and it looks like a logo is attached Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
