princess fan Posted October 4, 2006 #51 Share Posted October 4, 2006 [quote name='Lightsluvr']How about the "Fairy Princess" ???? :rolleyes: LL[/quote] Why not a Fairy Princess? I remember The Fairie Princess from an English lit class I once took. Carnival has a ship called Pride.:rolleyes: They're going to run out of desirable gemstones. There are still a few possible celestial names left, like Moon and Stellar. If they go to precious metals, they'll have to have an Elite after the Platinum one. Actually, I once saw something in Fort Lauderdale harbour called the Bulk Princess!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare aring75 Posted October 4, 2006 #52 Share Posted October 4, 2006 They moved the Ocean Princessto P&O, so the could re-use that name. Or the Atlantic Princess, maybe. They already have the Pacific and the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardj Posted October 4, 2006 #53 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I think this ship will be destined for P & O and be called the Ventura, due for delivery in spring 2008. She is a sister to the Crown and Emerald (see the features section of these boards for details). Richardj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LetMeGo Posted October 4, 2006 #54 Share Posted October 4, 2006 [quote name='w0kie']I didn't think the Sea Princess MUTS was ugly but I bet it sure catches wind and makes the ship more top heavy.[/quote] It sure doen't look pretty, but don't think that a further 2% (give or take 1%) drag from the wind is going to make any difference when cruise ships aren't aerodynamic to begin with. :D As for the top heaviness... There seems to be some odd opinions about that in general. In this case the whole screen setup would have to be made of solid aluminium (and weigh about 100 tonnes) in order to signiificantly alter the centre of gravity and make the ship top heavy, when in reality screens of this size (e.g. Jumbotrons) only weigh as little as 5 tonnes. Sorry for the interruption. I'll let you all get on with the speculation. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sonomaphil Posted October 4, 2006 #55 Share Posted October 4, 2006 How about The Princess Bride? "Have fun storming the castle!" Well it was a good movie anyway. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongerob Posted October 4, 2006 #56 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I've got two I'd like to see. Luna Princess...has a nice ring and could have a nice sea and sky theme. Too bad it wouldn't be long before it would be known as Looney Princess. :) I'd love to see Wilderness Princess with a north woods/Alaska theme. I think that one would have to be smaller ship, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LetMeGo Posted October 5, 2006 #60 Share Posted October 5, 2006 [quote name='derf5585']Will the ship go faster if everyone flushes at the same time?[/quote] No they won't, as there's nothing exits the ship through the sewage system... But you might get a bit more speed if all the people in the aft facing cabins were passing their gas out the door simultaneously. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richardj Posted October 5, 2006 #65 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Thanks [EMAIL="JLC@SD"]JLC@SD[/EMAIL], I stand corrected! I had hoped that any future new builds for Princess would be smaller ships to replace the Sun class. Regards Richardj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICRE1629 Posted December 20, 2006 #67 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I hope those in charge of naming the Princess ships are reading this. Some of the suggestions sound cool!
