Some of the HAL fleet are starting to show their age. Does anyone know where I can find a list of when the last time the boats were in drydock or when in the future they have them scheduled for?

Which ship(s) were you looking for a "last" date on?

Maasdam is right now on her last cruise before dry dock.

Noordam had hers last summer in Germany.

wasn't the ryndam the spring of 2010?I don't know. I was just going by last year's "sailing schedule" which had it marked for Jan/Feb. Let's just call it "early" last year. :)

The Zuiderdam was in last January but it was only a short cosmetic dry dock. I was on it shortly after and there were still wear marks on the calendar, wear marks on the carpet, etc. It is needing to go in for a major dry dock soon but it is not due until 2012.
