Big Ball on Mariner of the Seas

[F27TW]

I'm a little outta the loop on RCCL this past year or two .. but I just watched Mariner leave Port Canaveral looking absolutely beautiful.     There is a big round yellowish ball on the top deck aft .. I am curious what that is.

Looks kinda scary!   I'd be the one who got the frayed cord that sent me right off the stern into the water!  Lol

For real ??    I wanna hear about it.

 

What an embarrassing way to go .. being shot out of a ball off the back of a ship.

Someone got really hurt not long ago! I consider myself an adventurous person but, it would certainly give me reason to really think about it before I jumped in willy nillie. Although, I did read where a new company took over the contract & is doing a better job of maintaining them.

I thought the SkyPads were closed on all ships? Has service been restored?

They were reopened pretty quickly without much being said.

wow, I had no idea they were shut down for a bad injury. I am going on Indy in Dec and was looking forward to this. I guess we will know by then if there are anymore issues.

You might want to reconsider both your font and the color. Almost impossible to read on a phone. The combo is almost like you dont want someone to read your comments

I couldn’t read it with my current vision situation.
