Vision Class Conversion

Recommended Posts

From what we've heard from the Grandeur Captain on board last November, the cost of strecthing the Vision class ships, as Enchantment, does not pay for itself. They are continually looking at the issue, and, as of that time, no more strecthes are planned.

 

Not all of them can be easily stretched either - Legend, for instance, has it's engines at midship, which would make any attempt to split it there virtually impossible. I'm pretty sure Splendour, being Legend's virtual twin, is similarly configured. The other ships were configured differently, making the stretch feasible (different sets of twins were actually built at different shipyards). [as an interesting side note, the engine configuration and by extension the weight distribution makes Legend one of the fastest ships in the fleet]
