Rare uktog Posted March 13, 2021 #101 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I believe he and one of the Chief Engineers have been in Italy for a few weeks doing various due diligence checks on the state of the vessel. The two deals may be simultaneous I suppose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is with masks on I don't recognise anyone! Except Hans, Chief Engineer, but only because he's taller than everyone else! Phil 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Elisabeth is there as well. Glad she’s involved in the work, she has a great eye for detail. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riocca Posted March 15, 2021 #110 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I see the new ship has gone out for a little drive today, scheduled to be back in Civitavechia later today, but you never know if that’s right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope all onboard are able to keep safe given the third wave of virus shutting down Italy tonight. Those on board will be staying there a while I suspect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now wonder when they will confirm that the transfer has taken place and were the retrofit will occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welwyngirl Posted March 19, 2021 #121 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Well, it wouldn't be my choice of name! It's sounds very awkward to me. There were much better suggestions imho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I keep singing Onward Christian soldiers in my head, marching as to war, is not a good connotation so I need to think of something else to focus on! Four Azamara ships to choose from is, however very, very good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
