Who is the Activity Manager on your sailing, if I could ask you?

 

Sorry, Paulette. I didn't see this until I got back and I only have incomplete info. His first name is Martin and he was very good. He lead impressive dancing classes each morning in the Centrum.

[cruiserdudebobby8]

Should Dru be CD on Anthem July 6th, 2017? or too soon to tell?

[ncb106]

It's way to far to see where he will be and with these changes that's going on it's hard to tell

Abe was moved to Harmony. For more info, scroll back a few pages.

 

We love Dru (sailed with him twice). He hosts awesome Seinfeld and Friends TV trivia. He is kind of reserved with a dry sense of humor, but very approachable and friendly, and not annoying.
