CRUISING ALONG Posted September 21 #1 Share Posted September 21 Just checking the Sydney Harbour Cruise Schedule and noticed that The World- Residences at Sea will be visiting Sydney Australia arriving 10am on 7th October 2024 departing at 11pm on the 10th October 2024. Perhaps you might be interested in buying a residence on board? There are 165 apartments on board 3 bedroom, 2 bedroom and 1 and 2 bedroom ocean studios Launched in 2002. The World is said to be the planet's largest private residential yacht- the only ship of it's kind currently in operation. C 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The World is said to be the planet's largest private residential yacht- the only ship of it's kind currently in operation. C It was here at the beginning of 2018 (or maybe 2017). We had been invited onboard Crystal Symphony for the afternoon and The World was docked right behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted September 21 #3 Share Posted September 21 The World on our shores is rather scary, what if it gives us ideas? 😳 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MMDown Under Posted September 21 #4 Share Posted September 21 Who came up with such a clever idea? Imagine having the World as your base and flying off wherever you wished.Then return to cruise your favourite parts of the world. Has anyone on here cruised on it or live on it?

Rare arxcards Posted September 21 #5 Share Posted September 21 She tends to spend time in Sydney every 3 years or so. I had a close look (from the outside) same time back somewhere on the other side of 2010. Cruise every day for the next 20 years in balcony cabins on any contemporary cruise ship(s) of your choosing, and it will still be cheaper than buying a cabin on The World. Once aboard, you have significant service and management fees, so a bit out of my league. Actually, quite a lot out of my league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare aussielozzie18 Posted September 22 #6 Share Posted September 22 Wouldn’t mind having a looksee. Will she be moored in the Harbour or docked somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relaxing Robbies Posted September 22 #7 Share Posted September 22 We were docked next to The World in Victoria Canada when we were on the old Golden Princess in June 2017. It was the perfect opportunity to have a good sticky beak! I don’t know how many residents were onboard, but the majority of the people we saw seemed to be crew.

There were a couple of guys who we're loaned an apartment by a friend and who posted about their experiences. Actually we met someone at a friend's Xmas party last year who done that - not sure if it was one of those guys though. I didn't think to ask him until too late.

I think you'd need more than a good lotto win to be accepted as a resident on The World. I don't think they have big enough Lottos here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very close to our house in fact. I’m glad it doesn’t try to tackle the sandbar😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If such arsy luck was bestowed upon me, I think I would like to cruise on every ship (of choice) and try and tick-off as many ports as possible. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mareblu Posted yesterday at 02:10 AM #22 Share Posted yesterday at 02:10 AM How’s this for timing? Today’s The Australian has a supplement on luxe living, and includes this page. I shudder to think what the annual ownership fees are, on top of the stratospheric purchase prices. I think I could manage the lifestyle, if forced. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
