geoblond Posted July 19, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 19, 2023 On a previous cruise my husband and I had a balcony cabin next to a sweet couple. Every evening before dinner the husband would come out on their balcony for a few minutes, look around, then go back into their room proclaiming ‘ Everything’s Ship Shape!’ This became a private joke between us-every so often we repeat to each other ‘Everything’s Ship Shape!’ When this vintage RCI visor popped up in an ad I had to have it. This makes me curious if others have older Royal merchandise and souvenirs they would like share (with a picture if possible 🙂) 10 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paross4 Posted July 19, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Couple of items I still have from the cruise in 2013. (the shirt is getting a tad bit worn - but it's great for wearing doing yardwork) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soremekun Posted July 19, 2023 #5 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I have this on my fridge at home. Makes me think of cruising, however, I'll never bring it with me. 1 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another_Critic Posted July 19, 2023 #10 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I have a ShipShape visor and several Song of America and Nordic Prince glasses. I don't think I still have my ShipShape t-shirt ... it wouldn't fit anyway, since I'm no longer ship shape. 2 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruiser24 Posted July 19, 2023 #12 Share Posted July 19, 2023 We used to participate in every activity they offered, just to earn the coveted Ship Shape dollars. We still have lots of swag purchased with those dollars. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser24 Posted July 19, 2023 #13 Share Posted July 19, 2023 The ship model is from our first cruise on the Nordic Prince in 1987. Not purchased with dollars, just the beginning of our Royal adventures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonsai3s Posted July 20, 2023 #14 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Wow! I may have some ShipShape dollars in the garage. I'll go through some boxes when we get home...about to board the Spectrum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roupa Posted July 20, 2023 #15 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Ship shape dollars! 😲🤣🤣 On our first cruise in 1993!! we would “earn” ShipShapeDollars for participating in certain activities… dance classes or morning walks for example. We’d collect a dollar from a crew member after every trip around the track during the morning walks. We even got the husbands to go to dance classes or “ morning stretch” to earn dollars! With the dollars we “ bought” logo items included SHIP SHAPE t-shirts. Wish I still had mine! Was fun competition and motivation to work off those ( now nonexistent) midnight buffets! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilkySal Posted July 20, 2023 #18 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I could post pictures of the wonderful Andes chocolates that we used to find on our cruise pillows; however, we caved and ate all of them!😜 Cheers! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilkySal Posted July 20, 2023 #20 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Oh, wait a minute, we have a full set of the "loving cups" but they are in FL, so can't post a pic of them now; anybody else have them? They were shot sized cups in different colors; if you ordered the "after dinner drink of the day" in the loving cup, the cup was included to keep/collect. Ours are at our FL home in my curio/cruise cabinet with our crystal blocks! LOL! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So good and the cups are so cute. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
