it has retractable smoke stacks. Even then, it only cleared a bridge in Helsinki by less than 2'.

Ugly as heck on the outside....but nice inside.

I like the looks of older ships, but they have a hard time competing with the huge modern ones.

Is must be a bitch to winterize :lol:

I wonder how many guys it takes to change the impellers.

I wonder who is the poor SOB that's in charge of the vacuflush system.
Buffet x 8500 = eeewwww.

We cruised on RCC Voager of the sea it's first year when it was the biggest ship in the world. Now that there is a new biggest one we just had to go. We booked our trip almost a year in advance to get the stateroom that we wanted.

True that these massive ships are ugly on the outside, the inside is amazing! Our trip is not until March but it sure something to look forward to, during the wet cold winter.

Good move on the March booking. The late Dec-Feb trips are almost always windy. Better than average odds the outside of ship will be closed a couple of days during that period. I'm anxious to see Oasis come into Port Everglades.

As an aside, there was a private yacht at the FTL boat show that was so large it had to tie up at the cruise ship dock. It was larger than the destroyer that was behind it.

And shrink wrap... It would take a sheet 1200' long and 500' wide to cover that bad boy.

Put a Soviet era government building on pontoons and there you have the sister ship.

You'll love the Voyager. We did that trip about 4 years ago. Cannot imagine what this new one must feel like.

Yeah, but does it have a functional "skyhook"?

Looks like it was designed by Carver

Although not the largest in the world, Disney is presently building a ship called the Disney Dream. This is a large ship yet it still has the traditional steamer look. In my opinion she’s a far better looking girl. A real head turner.
