See this post for the image. Just a guess, but it might be something they incorporated on the soltice class, like the glass blowing classes.

Brian131489 Posted January 30, 2014 #1027 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Hopefully not too much longer. I would say within a month we may see RipCord installed. I think we may see ripcord installed once she is outside, they won't put the finished funnels on until she clears the building dock. Height wise they are limited being that it's a closed building dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overtyme Posted January 31, 2014 #1029 Share Posted January 31, 2014 From the deck plans: The Workshop Bright, spacious room dedicated for jewellery making, scrapbooking. Interesting! Not sure that's up my alley, but it's an interesting use of space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tough as Leather Posted January 31, 2014 #1030 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I wonder if we'll see a new batch of photos from the RCI press center webpage? It was two Fridays ago when we were treated to the last ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tall-Cruiser Posted February 2, 2014 #1035 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I'm going to guess all of that glass is covered to prevent paint splatter. Wonder how long they will keep things covered. Probably until most of the outfitting is done. Looking back at some of the renderings and deck plans (and the life boat support from above picture) are the life boats actually sitting on top of deck 5 or along the side like on the other RC ships? I thought I read somewhere that the safety rules for boarding lifeboats was changed/updated and that is why on the Quantum Class they are different.

If you google Celebrity Solstice Promenade Deck you'll see some pictures. It is the same design on Quantum. The lifeboats are actually resting on deck 5 so it's very closed in and you can't see the ocean unless you go to the areas where there are none. Very un Royal Caribbean like IMO. I really wish they had at least given us an overhang since they took so much space away from that area. The area outside the MDR on Voyager and Freedom class ships is my favorite place at sea.

You are right. I checked a few images at Google and Ship Parade and the layout is almost identical. I have never been on Celebrity and the Solstice Class, so I wonder how deck 6 balcony cabins overlooking the lifeboats are for guest (assuming its the same deck number above the promenade)? I have heard a lot of positive comments on the Waterfront concept that NCL has on the Brekaway Class. Hopefully RCI will come up with something for the Quantum Class.

CRUISEFAN0001 Posted February 2, 2014 #1039 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Lloyd is doing an amazing job keeping this up to date and photos in this thread. Kudos! Hopefully we'll see a similar thread started soon on Anthem as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said...since the progress stages on the 2 ships are not the same...that was the reason for the recommendation of segregating things if possible. You're doing a super job on Quantum!

Good recommendation indeed. It works either way. Maybe when we get a new photo of the Anthem's build, somebody will be tempted to start a new thread. I have a separate board started on Pinterest for the Anthem. I have to remind myself to post some Anthem keel photos in it. Funnily enough, I was looking forward to seeing some blocks added to her keel in the latest webcam images, but then they changed the webcam view to the latest one! (I was also hoping to see if all the Quantum's bow keel blocks were attached - I was told that it appears as if they are). Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall-Cruiser Posted February 2, 2014 #1043 Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) It would be great if Meyer Werft had the two webcams up in Hall 6, front and back (it has been done before). This way you can see both ships progress in isolation. Since they are only giving us one for now the idea of "Quantum Class Keel Blocks are in the House" is a good one. It would also make it easier to compare things in the build stage of Anthem if in the same thread by flipping back a few pages to view Quantum progress at the same stage. Yes, Lloyd has done GREAT JOB keeping things interesting here :) Edited February 2, 2014 by Tall-Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point. In fact, if you overlay the deck 4 and 5 deck plans from the Reflection, you have a really close fit to the deck 4 and 5 "royal" promenade on Quantum. Looking more and more than a morph on the Solstice class design every day:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SCH-I545 using Forums mobile app How was the outside promenade deck on the Solstice class if you can recall? Just so that we have a point of references for Quantum. Thanks.

I have heard a lot of positive comments on the Waterfront concept that NCL has on the Brekaway Class. Hopefully RCI will come up with something for the Quantum Class. I believe there will be something like the NCL waterfront concept on Quantum. There's a video floating around YouTube of Kevin Sheehan 'introducing' NCL Getaway. It's on board the ship during its first populated sailing, he talks about a ship that will be released soon that's already copying the concept. I think it's a logical conclusion that he's probably referring to QoS. Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
