Everything... Norwegian ENCORE! Launch Nov 2019

That’s why I would think Brito. Big Park West artist like the other Away class ships have been (except for Joy).

 

Yes, but he´s a big PW artist on all cruise lines PW is on ;) - same for RCI, Celebrity and many more...

Encore's Floating Engine Room Unit (FERU) as Neptun calls it being "floated out" of their newest building hall, onto a barge and hopefully ready for transport to Meyer Werft.

 

edit: not sure if the barge goes to Meyer or that the FERU will be towed as asual. The barge might serve as platform for ongoing work and to make space for next blocks/FERU's.

There she goes!

This is her Marinetraffic sign, I think: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/details/ships/shipid:5675219/mmsi:211003526/imo:0/vessel:LSE_CASCO_PROJECT

 

With "Bugsier 6" and "Multratug 14" towing her.

I’d love to see an Alfred Gockel design for the Encore.

 

Interesting! The hull art on NCL is very diverse. I wonder when they’ll announce it.

 

I really enjoyed the Weyland channel on the Bliss. I was inspired and signed up for a painting class, it was a lot of fun.

AIDAnova leaving the large building hall. On the right you can see two or three (not sure!) Encore blocks. The second block from the right is the aft block for Royal's Spectrum.

FreestyleNovice,

 

 

I don´t think it´s the Encore but the Spirit of Discovery by Saga Cruises. The Encore will start soon now the AIDAnova has left the building hall.

The Saga ship is being build in Hall 5. Where they used to make blocks for transport to the large Hall 6, so any Encore blocks appearing on the sides of Hall 6 would fit in since Hall 5 is completely taken for the Saga ship?

 

It took me a while to believe that Encore is already underway too! :D

[steamboats]

Freestyle,

 

 

I saw photos labeled "Spirit of Discovery" which were out of the same building hall as the AIDAnova and Spectrum are in. I haven´t seen any photos of the Encore yet.

 

 

Anyway, I´ll be there next week and I might have a chance to ask someone.

Step one of the cruise ship build kit complete: gather some heavy marine engines. :)

I’m taking notes this time. There’s no way in hell we can wait for Leonardo... so we’ll build a couple in-between.

 

1) gather heavy marine engines

[All-ready2cruise]

Is this it:

Two-stroke Marine Diesel Engine | Kawasaki Heavy Industries

 

 

 

Probably not... I have a Kawasaki in my garage... doubt it would power this ship though... ;p ;)

 

 

Still waiting... tick tock :ship:

Assuming it will be the same as her sisters:

 

2 × MAN 14V48/60CR (2 × 16,800 kW)

3 × MAN 12V48/60CR (3 × 14,400 kW)

 

One of Encore engines at Neptun before the engine(s) went in the block that arrived at MW

Yeah, they seem a little bigger than the one I have in my garage... :')

Taking notes Doug? Can't use All-ready2cruise's garage for our cruise ship kit. Bummer.:( :(

Hey, don't count me out yet... I'm moving soon and my new place will have a 300K garage... is that big enough... ?

 

My concern would be: can it get to my preferred port of call?.... hmmmm :evilsmile:

[rtkenmore]

So the hull art was revealed... I don't remember seeing anyone post about it... Eduardo Arranz-Bravo will do the honors... And the one photo I've found, I don't like it compared to the other Away Class ships.

AIDA wants their "ripple-effect" back...:(

[david_sobe]
