FAP16 Posted October 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Found letter from the Captain in our cabin last night explaining Boutique renovations on fleet. As if this morning Silver Spirit boutique will be closed for the remainder of the voyage (through 10/31). A temporary location will be set up in 2 days in the Card Room on Deck 9. 15% discount on all purchases in temporary location and 50% of Silversea logo products. Not sure about continuing voyages as the letter on addresses current cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about continuing voyages as the letter on addresses current cruise. And the Silversea boutique renovation band plays on, whether or not the paying guests like the music. Actually, the Spirit construction work may be slightly less disruptive than the work on other ships (where the boutiques are very close to suites.) As I recall, the Spirit boutiques are isolated toward the front of the ship. Noise is not likely to reach passengers in their suites, but it may well (from Whisper reports) affect passengers trying to enjoy some peace above or below in Terrazza or Panorama. I gather from previous posts that the logo wear is so discounted because the new concessionaire will stock very little of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emtbsam Posted October 24, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 24, 2014 What you say about the boutiques being far from the suites is correct. However, the boutiques are aft on the Spirit. Only the Observation Lounge is forward (and high) on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Silver Spectre Posted October 24, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Interesting use of the card room, which is miniscule on the Spirit, and is about one twelfth the size of the boutiques. There should be no disruption to guest suites. Good job this is not designated a Bridge sailing. Hope you are enjoying your cruise FAP16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellseasoned Posted October 24, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 24, 2014 On our recent Whisper cruise the temporary boutique during the long reconstruction was in the conference room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will now work on fore and aft. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusababy Posted October 24, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Thanks for the correction. I have nearly mastered port and starboard.

imcpa Posted October 24, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I always remember: left = 4 letters port = 4 letters I have been on Silver Cloud, Regent Mariner, Crystal Serenity and the Paul Gaugin. I have set to be on the Spirit in July 2015 and hope it will be my favorite due to the size and suites. Anybody have good pics of the Spirit gym?

Emtbsam Posted October 24, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I remember port being on the side of the ship that has the red light and port is red (sort of). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer Posted October 24, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 24, 2014 (edited) Heavens! What have I started? I merely meant to apologize for misstating the position of the Spirit boutiques and the kind of disruption the construction work would or would not create. :) Edited October 24, 2014 by Observer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emtbsam Posted October 24, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Observer - I hope you didn't take offense at my remark. It is interesting to see what tricks people have to remember things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer Posted October 24, 2014 #12 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Observer - I hope you didn't take offense at my remark. No problem at all. I have fairly thick skin and have not entirely lost my sense of humor. :) But thanks for expressing your hope/concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
