kevingastreich Posted July 8, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 8, 2019 We were on Oosterdam the last week of June and I noticed two full size refrigerated shipping containers lashed down on deck 10 starboard. I have never seen this before. We did eat lunch with the Hotel Director but I totally forgot to ask him about this. Does anyone know what was (is) going on? Thanks.

luvteaching Posted July 8, 2019 #2 Share Posted July 8, 2019 We were on the Oosterdam the 23rd - 30th of June and at "Ask the Captain" the containers came up. It was something about freezer issues and those containers were the freezers until the on-board ones could be fixed. At least that's what I remember!

VintageGeo Posted July 8, 2019 #3 Share Posted July 8, 2019 We were on June 9 -16, and there was a container there. I only noticed one at the time, but I've been known to miss things 🤪. They had a large crane waiting in Victoria and hauled quite a load of produce up. George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted July 8, 2019 #4 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Many years ago we were on the Zuiderdam when one of the refrigerators broke down. When we got to St Thomas, 2 refrigerator containers were but onto the bow of the ship. We were told that it would take a while before the main freezer would be fixed. I imagine this was the situation in your case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on that cruise also and I was going to ask the Captain but I didn't make it to the event. Thank you for the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
