rsjc Posted June 30, 2006 #2 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I have one of every ship that we have gone on. They have been between $20 and $30. The sizes are all different. Some are 6 inches and others 9 inches. I had a friend pick one up on the Conquest a few weeks ago to make sure I got one. I was on the Grand Princess spring break 2005 and the gift shop was out. A fellow Cruise Critic person (AstroAggiefan) picked one up for me a month later when she went. The ship is the only place other than E-Bay. Do a search for the ship name or cruise model. I'll be going March 07 if you still need one then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brentonsmom Posted June 30, 2006 #6 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Not sure on the dimensions, but they have it in the gift shop on the Conquest. It may be 9-10 inches and I believe made of wood. It is 25.00. It looked nice. Tina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently searching for a future Holiday cruiser to pick the Holiday up for me - that's the only one I'm missing! So if you're out there... I think I need to get one quick, because I don't think the Holiday has too many years left in her. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
