Black Watch

[Cruiseroz]

I see one email is asking about Black Watch.

 

We love her, also her sister ship Boudicca.

Who's Captain plays a mean trumpet!!

 

Crew of Phillipino are excellent as are the Indian staff.

 

Black Watch is a nice size ship that one doesn't feel crowded in and one

[at least we did] felt relaxed and had two enjoyable cruises on her.

 

OK so we are not in our 20's but mid 60's!

 

She is not a glitz ship, thank goodness, I would hate to go on one!!

 

So she fitted out needs very well.

 

The crew are very professional and friendly we could not ask for better.

 

I only wish Olsens would use her to sail around Australia in our summer months, either her or Boudicca! She can get into so many small ports in Australia it would be a lovely vessel for the Australian scene!

 

Our trips with both vessels have only been in Artic cycle and Baltic and the best of all was the inland route of Norway. That so far has been our

very favourite cruise!

 

Wonderful, if you like a relaxed cruise with a week of fantastic scenery.

 

It was so relaxing just looking out a window or sitting on deck to see the magnificient green slopes of Norway sail passed and the mountains!

 

Last Christmas we sailed to New Zealand to compare the south island of New Zealand to Norway, well lovely as New Zealand is it cannot compare to Norway we love it!:D
