Sidetracker Posted December 8, 2007 #1 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Silly question - I notice a small above ground type pool on the bow of the NCL ships when I look at their live cams. Never have seen anyone in the pools. Anyone shed any light on what this is about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruizinwithkids Posted December 8, 2007 #2 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I know that on the Dawn they are crew pools. We had a bow facing room one time and there were a few people who used it. There was one female crew who used it most consistently, very few others. I guess many would rather sleep on their time off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never have seen anyone in the pools. Anyone shed any light on what this is about? They are mostly used while in port. When we are on the Dawn in the Southern Caribbean in December & Janaury, they are use alot by the crew. The Dawn pool was orignailly two hot tubs, but the Rogue Wave wrecked them and they converted them into a pool. Happy Cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes a lot of sense. We sailed in November and December on the Florida/Bahamas itinerary. It probably wasn't warm enough for a lot of people to swim comfortably. Since we're from New England, we thought it was plenty warm.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seago2 Posted December 8, 2007 #5 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I've never seen anyone in or near them- and I always look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ute_fan Posted December 8, 2007 #6 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I have seen people using them, but not very often. Here's a snap of the bridgecam from the Jewel showing the crew out on loungers. I've also noticed them standing out in that area on the Pearl while waiting impatiently for last year's Alaska cruise -- staring at the glaciers in Glacier Bay.

andreamarc Posted December 11, 2007 #9 Share Posted December 11, 2007 That is a crew pool. We saw quite a few people around it more than in (it's small on the Spirit.) We were in 10502, singapore suite which looks out over the front of the ship, so we saw crew alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insidevoicemp Posted December 11, 2007 #10 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I use to work in N.Star and yes they are crew pools,, one good reasson why crew is not using them so often is simply beacuse they are watched 24/7 In few cases when i have been on the bridge of N.Star i have seen few of the male quest's looking for girls sunbathing and using pools,, and then they wife's has come out and beat the crap out of them,,, funny thou...:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
