guernseyguy Posted September 1, 2006 #2 Share Posted September 1, 2006 A leading source of cruise-cams only lists Meyer Werft's cam: http://www.kroooz-cams.com/resources/shipyard-frame.htm And there is nowt on the Fincantieri site: http://www.fincantieri.com/ So I would guess, not.

guernseyguy Posted September 1, 2006 #3 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Comparison between Queen Victoria & Arcadia In the absence of a webcam, here's a comparison with the first Queen Victoria - P&O's ARCADIA - From the Fincantieri Web site - Queen Victoria data first: Gross Tonnage abt 89,500 / 82,505 tonnes Length overall abt 294.0 / 285.3 m Length between perpendiculars 265.36 / 254 m Breadth moulded 32.25 / 32.25 m Numbers of decks 16 / 16 Height to bulkhead deck 10.8 / 10.8 m Height to deck 3 19.81 / 19.81 m Design draft mld 7.90 / 7.80 m Corresponding deadweight 7,685 / 7200 tonnes Scantling draft 8.0 / 8.0 m Maximum air draft from waterline 54.5 / 54.0 m Max speed Abt. 23.7 / abt 24.0 knots Service Speed 21.7 / 22.0 knots In other words, slightly longer, slightly slower.....though max capacity is lower: QV: 2208 + 992 crew, total 3200, Arcadia: 2556 + 890 crew, total 3446.

SSNORWAY Posted September 1, 2006 #4 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Sounds almost identical, hopefully she will be a little more reliable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
