Saab4444 Posted May 16, 2016 #26 Share Posted May 16, 2016 It is the first time I see a scrubber added to a cruise ship in such an uggly way. All other scrubbers are somehow added into the smokestake but not separately and looking like a huge silver carbage can. Unbelievable!

HTFCcruiser Posted May 16, 2016 #27 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Just got off the Indy after a very enjoyable transatlantic. Only one of the 4 scrubbers has been fitted the work is ongoing but has no impact on the sailing, still a fair bit of soot on my aft cabin balcony daily. We heard on board that the cupcake shop is going to be changed into a pie shop for the UK market, could someone let me know if this is true.

There was quite a surprising of smoke out of the main stack when she was leaving Southampton. If my car did that, it'd fail the MOT emissions test :D Yes, I think that the Cupcake Cupboard has made way for a pie shop. Others on my sailing this summer have heard that it's both sweet and savoury pies and they'll be $4.25 each. But I've not heard anything official. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare tofubeast Posted May 16, 2016 #29 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Dumb question... what are the scrubbers and is this temp? I've never seen those on a ship, or at least something that looks like that. And regarding the cupcake turning into a pie shop...how I wish it would remain a pie shop once it crosses the pond again. I love pie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted May 16, 2016 #30 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) Dumb question... what are the scrubbers and is this temp? ... Not temporary. I'm oversimplifying, but the scrubbers are required to meet emissions requiremements with the fuel they want to use.

LeoEdre Posted May 17, 2016 #32 Share Posted May 17, 2016 From what I saw in a periscope video, the pie shop appears to be Pieminister. Don't know anything about this brand as I've never been to UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTFCcruiser Posted May 17, 2016 #33 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Pieminister is a great brand lovely pies almost glad they were not available on my TA. As I would have needed a crane to lift me from the ship, after all the food and drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
