melos Posted June 24, 2007 #1 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Hi, we recently booked the Eurodam for next July, the Fjords and Scotland itinerary. Does anyone know if the pool(s) will be heated? Is that usual on northern European itineraries? Thx! Hope to learn lots from y'all in the next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted June 24, 2007 #2 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Since she'll be a brand-new ship your guess is as good as ours. I've sailed the northern climes many a-time and spent time in the Lido pool quite comfortably. Actually, I think it's a kick to be in the pool or the hot tub as you pass icebergs and glaciers. :) So I guess the pool must be heated. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bepsf Posted June 24, 2007 #3 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Jacuzzis and Thassolotherapy pools are heated of course, but I don't think that regular shipboard pools on any ship are heated since they are emptied and refilled so often... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grannynurse Posted June 24, 2007 #4 Share Posted June 24, 2007 The forward pools have retractible covers. When we've sailed that far north the covers were usually closed, or cracked open just a bit. The aft pool is out in the open. GN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayzer Posted June 24, 2007 #5 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Don't you know the water from the pools cool the engines and are used for fire fighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melos Posted June 25, 2007 Author #7 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Oooooooooookay, thanks! Guess we'll just wait for the surprise. Hopefully someone on the inaugural (sp?) cruise will give us some tidbits while they're onboard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
