Wonder of the Seas Blocks Are In The House!

[bobmacliberty]

What's the starboard area opposite the port side Flowrider...where the second Flowrider would normally be?  Looks like it is tiered.

Deck 17-18 loft suite sections by the roadside. 

 

 

 

Funnel section as well.

Cantilever pool anyone?

"Pool" or Hot-tub?. If a pool then another big difference with the other sister ships. 

[Tall-Cruiser]

@Lloyd555 - Looking at that block another difference I see is that the some of the cabins under or around that pool or hot-tub appear to be Junior Suites.

Oops. Don't know, but likely hot tub. 

For making that that error, here's a partial view of the front end of the loft suite area, work in progress. I'm hoping for a better photo. The focus of the image taken by the photographer was supposed to be on the portico. 😏

You can see this block on the left end of this morning's photo in post #256.

That's a strange looking block for the front of the loft suites. Maybe because we are are not seeing the whole thing.

No kidding. 

I'm wondering if the unfinished square area will contain a screen or display like the Edge-class has on its pool deck.

The three blocks that make up the loft suite area of the ship.

Nice photos updates Lloyd. The last one is a pretty cool image of everything in the yard from the top phot bundled up.

Another one.

Good.  So it looks like it will have a Harmony/Symphony sized Solarium and not an Oasis/Allure sized Solarium.

 

Not a great zoomed in screen grab, but another view of Solarium.

And a blue pole in the way.

The RCI Chinese site mentions a delay in her arrival in China but not sure what it means in terms of finishing construction.

[Ethanol95]

I can't tell whether her construction looks delayed at this point. Her progress is still moving along quite alright.

[Chiliburn]

It doesn’t look delayed,  probably going to keep it somewhere safe and a secure market.

My guess is Singapore or LA.

The Chinese press updated that it is confirmed delayed for the Chinese market. Not sure whether that takes into account construction delays, or only when she will debut  in China.

[twangster]

One crane operator with a dozen well distanced spotters can move a massive block that looks like significant progress.  

 

The detailed finishing work that occurs everywhere inside the ship will become extended due to social distancing and reduced labor in the shipyard. 

 

For example, installing electronics on the bridge might have seen times when dozens of people are working in close proximity resembling a beehive of activity.  Now they'll be a couple of well distanced individuals doing the same work but taking ten times longer.  Apply that around the ship in hundreds of places then factor in that many activities rely on milestones of other activities before they can commence. 

 

The inter-dependencies are intricate and normally part of a master plan that has been all but thrown out the window now.   Projects of this scope are micro time managed.  Kiss that all goodbye.  It's back to the days when ships took a lot longer to build.

China is pretty unpredictable at the moment and if there’s a problem it wouldn’t be a good strategy to have your newest asset exposed to it.

I don’t believe Singapore has a ship for next season???

If it’s in the water ,it’s going to Singapore 

 

[Ethanol95]

I'll be damned if she gets a full season in Singapore. 🙂
