JMARINER Posted October 27, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Thanks again to CDPR for sending me this photo of the Voyager with her new look. (aka: Racing Stripe) This was take today 26Oct2103 from a tender in Sorrento. The Voyager together with the Mariner will be in Naxos/Taormino Sicily tomorrow if the now erupting Mount Etna permits. Hopefully, some new photos of the ship(s) and Mount Etna in the background. J 31/422 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChatKat in Ca. Posted October 27, 2013 #2 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I loved the R when it was burgundy under Radisson. That blue stripe looks tacky to me. I remember waking up at the Hotel Vittorino in Sorrento - it was my first trip to Italy and my first night there. We had a balcony room facing the water and the Voyager was there at anchor. I was so excited to see her there having taking several then Radisson cruises and having a booking on her for a few months later. Thank you for posting the photograph. Great memory. I will be there in about 2 weeks on the Oceania Riviera but they are docking at Naples. The Voyager will be in another port in the Med. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevertravel Posted October 27, 2013 #3 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I like the blue stripe. I dont find it tacky. It's understated and matches the blue of Regent sign. Voyager is a beautiful ship. Thanks for posting. I hope you get to tender in Taormina. We were there two years ago and the waters were so rough they couldn't get the tenders down. We cruised to Messina and they bused us to Taormina. Because we only had 1/2 day as opposed to a full day we either had to do Taormina or Mt. Edna. We opted for Taormina and missed Mt. Edna.

Travelcat2 Posted October 27, 2013 #4 Share Posted October 27, 2013 If you look at other photos of the Voyager, the blue stripe does not match the paint at the front of the ship (at the bottom). The paint on the front is probably just faded but should have been redone to match the new paint (which I still am not fond of). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCCruzQueen Posted October 28, 2013 #5 Share Posted October 28, 2013 What a neat new design! I hope all the RSSC ships get this new updated look. It has a classy look and being the color is of the sea, how appropriate. Thanks, J, for posting the pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedC Posted October 28, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I suspect blue color is the same from bow to stern BUT aft stripe is wider making it look darker. I still prefer the clean, pristine all white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelcat2 Posted October 29, 2013 #7 Share Posted October 29, 2013 The colors on the bottom do not match the "new" stripe - see post 36 posted by Host Dan. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1933546&page=2 I'm still trying to figure out where in the world the sea matches the "new" stripe.
