Julma Posted November 10, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted November 10, 2020 She's only in for a couple of weeks, so I'm guess the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMCOLT Posted November 10, 2020 #4 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I was at drydock 3 today. Workers said maintenance not a full refurb. Sounds like technical as people GB ave said 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that it will be from 9th to around 20th November, if the plan does not change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinMaterial Posted November 16, 2020 #9 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Anyone know if the Gem is running on schedule for her dry dock? The last time the Gem and the Jewel were in Boston for dry dock... things didn't go as planned! 😐 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMCOLT Posted November 18, 2020 #10 Share Posted November 18, 2020 The last time a crane flipped over while the jewel was there which delayed departure which in turn delayed the Gem getting in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMCOLT Posted November 18, 2020 #11 Share Posted November 18, 2020 That crane incident was in December 2010. I may swing by and see how things look tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted November 18, 2020 #12 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Just don't knock a crane over! I remember that incident fondly as I met up with crew from the Jewel at the time and showed them around on their off duty time. I honestly wish I could've brought myself to login her earlier than this to know she was here last weekend. I would've gone down and taken my family too. We could use a pick me up... even if it is just staring at her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted November 20, 2020 #13 Share Posted November 20, 2020 A man could dare to dream. She's out of dry dock in Boston and sitting at the Black Falcon terminal for now. Her AIS says she's headed off to Charleston, SC. Have to pay closer attention to where these ships are going in the future I guess! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just found this video on You Tube of the Gem sailing into Charleston. So wonderful to see her; our last cruise before the pandemic was in January on the Gem -- 20 wonderful days from NY to San Francisco, through the Panama Canal. Seems like forever ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtns2sea Posted November 25, 2020 #16 Share Posted November 25, 2020 It is exciting to see a cruise ship again. The Gem was surrounded by 4 cranes this morning. Must be continuing the dry dock work here in Charleston. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
