Storylady Posted August 14, 2013 #77 Share Posted August 14, 2013 John, I was wondering if it is too early to know who the Captain, HM, CD and Dining Room Manager is for the Prinsendam SA Grand Voyage in January? And will you ever get an opportunity to be security on a Grand Voyage? Would love to sail with you again. We were lucky enough to meet up with you on the VOV last year. My brother and sister-in-law still live in Torrence. We think about you every time we go to see them. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare erewhon Posted August 14, 2013 #79 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Staff Captain Williams, the only female staff captain with HAL at the moment, has been serving on Volendam but is going to Maasdam in the future HD Rene Tuinman and his wife are currently assigned to Zaandam Thank you for your reply. Sounds as though we will just miss Catherine, she is a great Kiwi lady. Rene' is an excellent HD, Volendam's loss is the Zaandam's gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that our paths cross someday again. Really enjoyed our VOV cruise even with all the port cancellation. Still vividly remember the meeting explaining the cancellation of the Greenland port of call and Prince Christian Sound. Enjoyed Molde and the extra time in Reykjavik and St Johns.

tigragirl Posted August 14, 2013 #85 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I'm so curious, I can't help but ask, if you don't mind. If this is your first HAL cruise (lucky you...... the first is always special), would the names of the Captain and CD mean anything to you? Would you know these people if you've never sailed HAL before? I know I'm missing something obvious but not sure what. :o Have a GREAT cruise. Yes it would I have read Captains Log so I am aware of the author and the line he worked for I was also aware that Anthony Haywood was a CD but unsure on which ship.He used to be a frequent face in my living room on my TV and came across as having a great sense of humour,so I am more than happy to learn he will be the CD on my trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Copper10-8 Posted August 14, 2013 #87 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Thank you for the info, got a big smile on my face on hearing who the CD is I forgot Anthony used to be on the QVC-UK TV station as a presenter. He is currently very heavily involved with the HAL Dancing with the Stars at Sea program where he accompanies the stars/dancers and support crew to the various ships (Veendam/Oosterdam + Nieuw Amsterdam in January next year) and becomes the liaison, facilitating the new (and very successful) program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nookhd+ Posted August 15, 2013 #93 Share Posted August 15, 2013 i read with interest the history of the Love Boat. My husband and I were on the Sea Venture Oct 1972, from New York to Hamilton. It was our first cruise. We had a suite up on A deck and we thought it was beautiful. Twin beds and a couch. A far cry from todays suites's or for that matter almost any cabin catagory. We didn't return to cruising for almost 30 years but it is still just as thrilling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pull back to the cruise ships was too great to resist. Seems he is doing a good job as CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pettifogger Posted August 15, 2013 #96 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Copper: You were kind enough to tell us who will be the officers on the Prinsendam in January, so maybe you'd be willing to tell us who will be the Dining Room Manager and Culinary Operations Manager on the Prinsendam on the September 16, 2013 cruise. (You can see that I'm more interested in the culinary aspect than in the navigation aspect.) Thanks. Semper Fi! Pettifogger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
