Sarah we did a 15 night itinerary like that on the Dawn Princess, minus Luganville, one of our best cruises as it included ANZAC day.. That one just misses out being there for ANZAC day, gets back to Sydney on the 24th, something to factor in re travel, you might get an extra few days with the holiday!

As for the Loveboat horn - last October Captain Sagani would play it at any opportunity (i.e. when leaving port and for instance again in Port Chalmers as we cleared Taiaroa Heads) The standard ship's whistle /horn got quite upset at being neglected, so decided to get stuck when we departed Hobart ...

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted July 6, 2019 #91 Share Posted July 6, 2019 The Love Boat horn sounded quite impressive in Kotor when we were there on Royal Princess in 2017, with the sound echoing back from the sides of the fjord. The ship disappearing in the distance is Rhapsody of the Seas which, of course, only has a standard horn. MVI_3287.MOV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Disney ships can really turn it on with a range of Disney tunes. Most other Captains know not to encourage them! Do a search in youtube for a laugh. Steve.

You are correct https://www.chriscunard.com/qm2/qm2s-horn/ Its called a whistle and the original was steam driven . When we sailed on her the whistle was rigged up so that when it sounded , hot water was sprayed on to the metal and it looked like a blast of steam , Not sure if they still do it .
