Grandeur getting ready

[Fairgarth]

This was at the Fincantieri shipyard in Ancona last week.  Looks good!  Grandeur on the left and the ship on the right not yet floated out is, I believe, Viking Vela.  I was familar with Fincantieri at Marghera (Venice) but did not realize that Fincantieri has eight shipyards, two naval and six civil.  Ironic really, Venice builds these huge ships, chases them away and says "don't come back".  One of the cranes was loading a lifeboat on board as we watched.

Looking forward to your first impressions. We don’t sail Grandeur until 2025 but will do so vicariously through others for now.
