What happens in dry dock?

What actually happens to a ship in dry dock? The Triumph will dry dock in September. We'll be on her on Oct 6th. What can we expect?

Boat comes completely out of the water... LOL

 

No seriously, they will probably do the following, but just what I think, no proof:

 

Make a more intense WaterWorks area, instead of just one slide.

Make an adult serenity area on Lido Aft.

Change a bunch of carpet.

Maybe put some modern TV's in the rooms.

Paint, paint, and more paint.

General maintenance and many behind the scenes stuff that passengers will never notice.

Many bridge updates and renovations that matter bunches to the captain, but nothing to us.

Thank you.

The five year dry dock is for serious hull and machinery inspection. This is required by both law and by the various marine classification societies.

 

Other things that may be done are all optional upgrades and work to improve the passenger experience. We, as passengers, should appreciate the inspections even more than any freshening or upgrades of the passenger facilities as they assure our safety.

I read on another thread - one of the many about Mobile- something like Oct 22. I was interested too since I want to sail before! (We don't like Evolutions of Fun)
