What Happened To The Admiral on Mariner?

[wristband]

He was living year-round on Mariner for several years as of two years ago enjoying life in a Mariner cabin. On our Mariner cruise last month, he was not onboard but when I inquired no one seemed to know.

 

Would a cruise hound know of his whereabouts? Curious minds would like to know.

There was an elderly gentleman living aboard Navigator last Sept when we were onboard. He had a table in the corner of CR and ate early, so we saw him a lot. A very nice man.

He's a retired US Navy Captain and he's living on the Navigator at the moment. He's recovering from hip surgery and picked the Navigator because it stays close to ports. He's a wonderful gentleman - walks a few times a day and does his crossword puzzle every afternoon. Makes me smile just to think about him.

Thank you both & nice to know he has happily migrated from Mariner to Navigator. Yes, a very nice chap and glad to know he is enjoying life.

 

He kept a very low profile on several Mariner cruises we were on. Ate early in Compass Rose and rarely saw him wandering around the ship.

OH So glad to hear about him.

He was on our Mariner cruise 11/20/2011 Rome to Fort Lauderdale cruise.

Rachael/Anna - Yes, we also saw him on Navigator in late August/early September 2012. Regards.

We first saw and talked with him several years ago on Voyager. I too have occasionally wonered about him. Did not see him on Mariner the last couple of times, but wasn't really looking for him as I assumed he was still on Voyager.

 

Glad to hear he is doing well and still enjoying his sea life.

We sailed with him in November on the Navigator. He was doing very well and as nice as ever. If he had hip surgery it did not show. A real gentleman to say the least!
