I sense that the answer is one. 😁

Here is a potential funnel (in background) photo to cheer up Tough as Leather. 😄

1. Maybe.

2. Distract Tough as Leather (apparently a FlowRider fan) with a cute photo of a dog because he may not like the answer.

The dog is clearly carrying a "0"

It looks like they have already installed yet another big block on the starboard side this time at the stern end. It has a crosses-over bit that connects to one on the  port side.

I guess we will barely see the sphere now. 🤕
I was thinking that they would be adding some at the other (aft) end. Maybe they Have!?

It does look like yet another mega block has been installed on the starboard side that includes a portion of a crossover... or actually just the center of the deck. 🙂

The edge of that upper deck on the Icon of the Seas is quite wavy. 🌊

See any similarities- white frame, Lifeboat placement, wavy upper sides.

@Lloyd555 You mentioned elsewhere that you haven seen the stern ship hull section(s) in the Meyer Turku ship yard similar to what we see in the 2009 Allure photo below.

I think that it may be in Gdansk, Poland.

Correct, I haven't yet seen those stern ship hull section(s) in the Meyer Turku ship yard.
I did see something at the Gdansk shipyard a while ago that - who knows - could possibly belong to the Icon of the Seas. 🙂

@Panda Monium Is it my imagination or did they also install more mega blocks towards the aft and behind the earlier “central park” blocks? Thanks

 

If I may answer. No, there haven't been any new mega blocks installed aft of the ones that have been there a while. There are quite a few mega blocks being stored behind the dry dock, ready to be installed! They got to be installed soon, right?!!

And meanwhile at the other end of the ship from a short while ago.

Then after those came the others you shared the other day reposting here below. I looked at these below over and over ( even after Lloyd thought no)  and it sure looks like more semi mega blocks were added behind Central Park (7,8 and 9). Perhaps I need new glasses 😀

These are Allure of the Seas photos as mentioned by @Lloyd555 elsewhere / on FB. He was using them as an example of what is mi6in the bottom of the Icon of the Seas.

Okay thanks for really clarifying that 👍. I thought I was losing it 😀
