Hflors Posted May 19, 2016 #14 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I guess I haven't been following this very closely. I thought She, Koningsdam was already dedicated. I thought a ship was dedicated before she sailed Isn't that bad luck or something if you don't do that before you sail? Anyone know why she would be dedicated after she sails?
