catl331 Posted June 26, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 26, 2018 (edited) Are the walls, ceiling, and doors of the staterooms magnetic?They are a steel alloy, but in our experience it takes a strong magnet to hold much weight on them. The door frames work better. For walls etc I suggest you get some "rare earth" magnets such as these: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_18?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=rare-earth+magnets&sprefix=rare-earth+magnets%2Caps%2C357&crid=19C07ITX8HZ4T Edited June 26, 2018 by catl331 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted June 26, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I have tried magnets on just about all the HAL ships' cabin walls including Noordam and none have held. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catl331 Posted June 27, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 27, 2018 If a strong magnet slides down on the wall try a column of two or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouremco Posted June 27, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I've used the "B" magnets from this page for several years with great success: http://www.leevalley.com/us/wood/page.aspx?p=73796&cat=1,42363,42348 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlsSalt Posted June 27, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I have tried magnets on just about all the HAL ships' cabin walls including Noordam and none have held. Try the ceilings. That is what finally worked fo me and I was able to do a couple of things I could not do before - dry wet shoes by the ventilation outlet, and hang my toiletry kit in the bathroom. Now to figure out how to "hang" maps or other items I like to stick on the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
