Rare MVPinBoynton Posted August 11, 2008 #1227 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Thanks Phil. They got those funnels up quickly. It does make her look more complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt1120 Posted August 11, 2008 #1228 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Danke Schon, Anders, Herr Dinotoll und Captain Rhone. Ausgezeichnet! Not to be a bugger or anything, but it kinda looks like a big box of balcony cabins. Doesn't matter, I'll be on board this beauty in 100 days!

TITISSA Posted August 11, 2008 #1231 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hello to all SOLSTICE shiplover friends at cruise critic :D, I just return from the shipyard Meyer werft and all pls have a look at these exclusive brand new pics I shot from this fascinating new ship. The chimneys will be fitted on monday. Any idea which stateroom those port holes on the aft belong to? Is it the S1 Sky Suite on the aft or is it the C1 Concierge Class on the side? Thanks.

darrencantwait Posted August 11, 2008 #1233 Share Posted August 11, 2008 A new photo... http://www.shipspotting.com/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=702206She now has her funnels. I still feel they should put a big x on one of the funnels. The X on the glass of the hump doesn't show up nearly as much as in the renderings.

Is it the S1 Sky Suite on the aft or is it the C1 Concierge Class on the side? Thanks. Yes those would be the S1 Sky Suites..Have mine booked for 2010 already....Oh and the life boats on the starboard side are new since yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chartroomchuck Posted August 11, 2008 #1235 Share Posted August 11, 2008 The images of the past week have been fantastic! Thank you to all who have posted images and/or links. Does anyone know when the mast is being installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sky suite has a porthole, floor to ceiling windows and a sliding glass door leading to the angled verandah. That's pretty good. Thank you for the great pictures, Dinotoll.

Coco Creek Posted August 12, 2008 #1237 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Danke Schon, Anders, Herr Dinotoll und Captain Rhone. Ausgezeichnet! Not to be a bugger or anything, but it kinda looks like a big box of balcony cabins. Doesn't matter, I'll be on board this beauty in 100 days! Yeah, I am thinking the same thing. Where on ship (other than my balcony) where I will be able to relax and enjoy the ocean? I will find out in a few months, but I really enjoy the fact that I can enjoy the ocean from multiple vantage points on the M class ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-legs Posted August 12, 2008 #1238 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I still feel they should put a big x on one of the funnels. :) ABSOLUTELY !! Every cruise line has its '' ID '' reporting marks on/near the funnel....and the traditionnal '' X '' is as classy as it gets...I've always wondered why no accomodation has been made for the ''new'' Solstice class to bear the ''X'' with pride, for the world to see !!!. I suspect this may yet come to fruition at some point.... Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The X on the glass of the hump doesn't show up nearly as much as in the renderings. I noticed those Xs awhile ago & have been wondering if that X is going to impede our view when we are in the hump cabin sitting down on the balcony or looking out from within??...

It doesn't look as though it would. They actually look more transparent that the regular glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinotoll Posted August 12, 2008 #1241 Share Posted August 12, 2008 That X on the glass of the balcony is more a shadow and isn't able to disturb the view.On the computeranimated pictures its more bigger but in reality its only a little bit intransparent and not spectacular.You have to look closely ever to discover it.Hope they will not paint it in dark blue...:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelman Posted August 12, 2008 #1242 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Now both her stacks and her mast have been added... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypo Posted August 12, 2008 #1243 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Does anyone know what the white structures are that are on the starboard side, immediately forward and aft of the front set of lifeboats? Hypo I did not see the same type of structures on the port side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt1120 Posted August 13, 2008 #1244 Share Posted August 13, 2008 OK, so everyone is a critic, but I'm missing the "X." The faint one set into the balcony glass isn't enough for me. Sorry to disagree with you, Herr Dinotoll, but I would like to see the "X" far more pronounced. Right now, the ship looks like stacks of balcony cabins. It's missing something. She's still beautiful, don't get me wrong, but I think I'd like to see the "X" darker, or perhaps on the funnel where one belongs. My two cents.

Friscorays Posted August 13, 2008 #1245 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I think she looks really good. In my opinion, the less extraneous "design" elements they tack onto her, the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelman Posted August 13, 2008 #1246 Share Posted August 13, 2008 The X looks a little more "visible" here, but is still pretty subtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted August 14, 2008 #1247 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Selfishly , being a hump balcony fan, I hope the X stays subtle & does not block the view.. If they want to X it up anyplace else that's fine with me...the X logo to me really is not that important..for me it is the beauty of the ship itself--inside & out & the experience on board... Keep those wonderful photos coming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted August 14, 2008 #1248 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Sorry to post 2 in a row--but I discovered two other threads discussing similar issues-both say the X is being tinted darker! Lots more about the stacks in those other threads as well-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinearchit Posted August 14, 2008 #1249 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I don't understand how the tinted hump balcony railing is obstructing the view. The railing wont be any larger, just darker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schplinky Posted August 14, 2008 #1250 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Keep those wonderful photos coming! They ARE great pictures! I don't understand how the tinted hump balcony railing is obstructing the view. The railing wont be any larger, just darker. I think the idea is that the railing AND the glass below it will be tinted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
