I was looking for a cruise for someone today, and noticed the key at the bottom of the list of cruises:-Ship Legend
AMS ms Amsterdam FUT ms Futuredam MAS ms Maasdam
OST ms Oosterdam PRI ms Prinsendam RTT ms Rotterdam
RYN ms Ryndam STA ms Statendam VEN ms Veendam
VOL ms Volendam WES ms Westerdam ZAN ms Zaandam
ZUD ms ZuiderdamNot, one might have thought, a particularly snappy name for a ship ... :D
(Seriously, this is a placeholder for the Noordam, isn't it?)

I agree with you - it does look like a place holder the future Noordam.

I think they should keep the name, give the boat a "world of tomorrow" look and we could all hope to be going "Back to the Futurdam"! :rolleyes:

Hmmm - Considering how everyone hated Zuiderdam when it came out, that sounds like a recipe for Disasterdam...;)

They could have NOS for Nostalgiadam. The ship could be outfitted and operated in the true vein of last century's ocean liners.

Hey, since Holland America is the Spotless fleet and you always see the vacuum being used in halways, stairways and other pleaces, why don't we call the next ship to be put on the drawing boards as the HOOVERDAM!
