hitaway4 Posted August 14, 2014 #3126 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Did it fail? stream cut out just as she was about to leave the view, now it looks like the tugs are actually moving her. :( saw one of the tugs having fun in the waves she made though, spun around abit :D They are just testing. They won't let her move on her own until after she's out of the shipyard. It is a super tight space and tugs are needed to maneuver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall-Cruiser Posted August 14, 2014 #3127 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) They are just testing. They won't let her move on her own until after she's out of the shipyard. It is a super tight space and tugs are needed to maneuver. i think you are right on that. You can see the tugs changing positions for more moves. The bow thrusters dont appear to be on at all.

Tall-Cruiser Posted August 14, 2014 #3128 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Right now as she appears in the current webcam, her paint color looks a lot more like Oasis and Allure. Or is it an illusion I am seeing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tls1012 Posted August 14, 2014 #3129 Share Posted August 14, 2014 She's backing up and I don't see the tugs pushing her but I do see smoke coming out of the funnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitaway4 Posted August 14, 2014 #3130 Share Posted August 14, 2014 She's backing up and I don't see the tugs pushing her but I do see smoke coming out of the funnel. They'll do small testing/movements, but you won't be seeing her doing a full 180 degree turn by herself. If you notice, the tugs are close by in case something happens...one at the bow and one at the stern. Her current orientation has more room for error since she is length wise in the basin. When she is turned 90 degrees from where she is now, there isn't much room anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall-Cruiser Posted August 14, 2014 #3131 Share Posted August 14, 2014 If click on 'Learn more about the Anthem' link on webcam page, get bigger version of image. We've discussed in which end of the hall the Anthem will be built. It's at the back now, but ...? So looks like they will repeat the same drill with Anthem in the back and NCL Escape in the front. Which is also in line with the block plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall-Cruiser Posted August 14, 2014 #3132 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I have finished my float out video: I'm very satisfied that the live stream worked so well and that so many people enjoyed it. My hd wireless link reached a distance of about 1000 feet. :) Many thanks for all your had work (past and present). The video was fantastic.

papcx Posted August 14, 2014 #3134 Share Posted August 14, 2014 The shape of this class is growing on me more and more. From this angle with the lifeboats in place she looks very nice. And no pink bear port side! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no pink bear port side! Wait until Northstar goes up...It'll change the look. I still love the "silhouette" she makes....:D (Little joke about her solstice class cousin) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Single Cruiser Posted August 14, 2014 #3136 Share Posted August 14, 2014 How many life boats she got each side? Must be fairly high capacity rated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy3putts Posted August 14, 2014 #3137 Share Posted August 14, 2014 So I'm wondering if we'll see any of the quantum class features in the next class of Celebrity ships, whenever that is. Just no flow rider or rock wall please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tall-Cruiser Posted August 14, 2014 #3139 Share Posted August 14, 2014 How many life boats she got each side? Must be fairly high capacity rated. Should be eight. The original rendering showed nine but was changed as the "glass enclosure" was added to both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tall-Cruiser Posted August 14, 2014 #3141 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I was just looking on royals site and they now have a cutaway picture of the quantum on the press site Interesting that they are now showing this when the same was put out for Anthem a few months or weeks ago. You think that they now realize that people have been frustrated with the lack of information about Quantum coupled with the fact that some have final payments due.

It truly is amazing the lack of info from them..
