Discovery Princess- Dolphin Deck 9- Will lifeboats distract from the view?

Those of you familiar with Dolphin/Deck 9 on Discovery or its sister ships- I am booked mid aft on Deck 9 in what looks like directly above the lifeboats/tenderboats. Although it is not an obstructed balcony it sure looks like they are distracting/ directly in your line of view (when I look at videos on Youtube, etc). What is your experience if you ever stayed in a balcony cabin on Deck 9-- are the bright orange boats going to drive me nuts and block the lovely ocean views? Thanks so much!

We had Deck 9 balcony mid fwd and did not see orange boats, unless you

got up to the railing and looked down.

 

No problem at all.

The top of the lifeboat is in line with the top of the balcony railing on Deck 8/Emerald.  If you are on Deck 9, you will see the lifeboat below if you look down.  If you look straight out, you won't see them at all.
