cmooretfo Posted April 28, 2005 #1 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Not sure if anyone has seen this but go to the shipbuilders web site, they have a section in new projects which has some pics of POAm. Here's the web site: http://www.lloydwerft.com/e/auftraege/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocoCat Posted April 28, 2005 #2 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Great pics of POAm. However, IMO her proportions look less "ship-like" & more like a gigantic floating hotel. Although that seems to be the trend today with all cruise lines looking to increase passenger capacity. I'll reserve further judgment until I see POAm in person. I plan to take a Hawaiian cruise on her next year. Also, I see there are a couple of good pics of the S/S Norway in the background. She still looks beautiful. I wish more than anything that she could re-enter service with NCL. sigh..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aroncor Posted April 29, 2005 #4 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Thanks for posting that site! I've been hoping to see some updated pictures. I thought it was very interesting. So far she looks GREAT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunshine 229 Posted April 29, 2005 #5 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Real cool pictures. It looks like someone built a hotel ontop of a cruise ship. It still has plastic and stuff around the front of the hotel part though. Can't wait to see it all finished and painted. Wheni is it's very first cruise?

That part is not a "hotel" part on the front, and on the tops...it is SCAFFOLDING, covered in plastic....all that will be removed...:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crewsin250 Posted April 30, 2005 #8 Share Posted April 30, 2005 I would love to see her come back to her birth place Ms. and sail from the port of Gulfport Ms. I worked on her for about a year at Ingalls and wish we could of had the opporunity to finish this ship and made it the real Pride of America. If things work out for me I will see the finish product and reminisce as I walk the halls and climb those stairs you see in one of the photos.

rickcohen2 Posted April 30, 2005 #9 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Gotta say, it still looks like a container barge to me (as do most of today's cruise ships). The Norway looks nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
