Everything.. Norwegian JOY! Delivery spring 2017

[ferk29]

There is definitely a lack of pool space onboard the joy. Taking reference to the the re-positioning cruise on the Genting Dream from Singapore to Hong Kong, there was hardly anyone using the pool deck. Due to the hot weather climate in Asia, they rather hide in the air-con areas of the ship.

 

 

This is sue to a cultural thing. Chinese people don't like sun bathing and getting tan. For them white/pale skin is a symbol of beauty and social status. Women in chine use umbrellas to avoid the sun during summer, so this ship being planned for the chinese market, it doesn't have many sun areas. In fact in the main pool area, they have a park concept with a pool sideways so it gets shade most of the timw

You are right on the mark here. Westerner remember this once and for all.

Why testing your fire control system with water sucked from the shallow and muddy shipyard's bassin isn't a clever idea..

Jesus, I thought the Joy caught fire...

 

Wonder whose bright idea was to do this, not exactly Meyer Werft's first ship. :\

Same here! :)

 

Here's the German source; https://www.schiffe-und-kreuzfahrten.de/norwegian/schlammschlacht-auf-der-norwegian-joy-im-werftbecken/123257/

 

Wouldn't be the first fire on board Joy btw, she already had two; one minor and one causing some €/$50.000 in damage. :o

[steamboats]

They are already cleaning her up, see here. And more photos after the incident can be found here.

 

BTW, the Ems conveyance is scheduled for next week. So far they are saying March 22nd - 26th. They final date will be announced by the beginning of next week as they still have to wait for the weather forecast.

Ems conveyance...

 

According to an article in NOZ yesterday it´s still not clear and Meyer prefers Sunday.

 

But I just saw a post on a German board now saying:

 

27th 00:00 start

27th 07:00 Jann-Berghaus-bridge

27th 13:00 Ems-Sperrwerk

 

Not sure how reliable that information is. But the webcam on the Meyerwerft Website is online.

At least the water system works in the event of fire? ;)

Ems conveyance...

 

NOZ (local newspaper) confirms the above given schedule.

 

Meyerwerft has changed their website saying "not earlier then the 26th".

Thanks Steamy :D

 

Looks like Joy will be outfitted with a small elevator for the tubes used on the slide, Escape didn't had that?

Joy also has some innovative light show, smaller than Genting;

Possible that was shot on a different ship? I'm not sure I saw anything uniquely "Joy" other than go-karts, and that had an odd close-up angle.

Yup, Escape Haven courtyard so the rest is also Escape I guess. The cart track doesn't seem to have the white markings and a long stretch of tarmac. :) But fun to watch.. :D
