Linda Raterman 1 Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Thank you so much for posting these pictures and update. We're booked to sail BTB 3/8 and 3/15 and hoping she's back in SJU in time. We were supposed to be on the BTB 1/5 and 1/12 sailings. Where/how did you get the pics?

BunnyHutt 102 Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Very cool. That said, I’m one of those people who prefers to *never* think about what’s below the waterline... the ship just glides along the top and there’s only like 3’ of water below us.

Brobbins246 265 Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 Exciting!! I'll be on her April, 2021. Where is this work being done? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twangster 25,639 Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 A good example of what a dry dock is really used for. You can't do work like this with the ship wet unlike changes to guest areas which can be done anytime there are no passengers on board regardless if the ship is wet or dry.

CrimsonCruiser 55 Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 I feel like a proud parent! Freedom was my first cruise ship ever and seeing her getting all refreshed and scrubbed and lots of TLC just makes me so happy! Also - ooh! she's getting slides! I loooove slides!

Jamie A 7 Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Just seen these on Instagram, looks like they are painting Freedom's hull blue. I wonder will this be a new livery applied to ships moving forward ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lovestotravel 73 Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Maybe the blue is a primer coat? RWDW1204 and Biff215 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atlantix2000 400 Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Looks like the same blue as the Quantum class ships. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PRC 364 Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Just like Voyager received the blue hull at amplification. This will likely be standard going forward to match things up to the Oasis and Quantum (and Plus) ships. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RWDW1204 497 Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 This is Oasis post amplification November 2019. Still looks white. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oasis Class ships, just like Quantum Class, have been light blue from the very start. Its not always obvious in photos, but it's always been there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jaymac Radio 1,116 Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Ok I Read This On FB And This Is Form One Of The Sports Staff Onbard. Quote as we changed the Flowrider, it’s completely new, the first one of its kind in the world!... Now I Wonder What It Is! Mike P and Lovestotravel 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jaymac Radio 1,116 Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 Here Some Photos Of The New Wave From RCI Flowrider FB Page. Quote The ride surface and the side walls are inflatable so it’s softer to fall on and the wipe out area at the top is a lot longer so you can’t hit the wall at the back. It’s overall much bigger than regular Flowriders Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coneyraven 2,060 Posted March 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 The photos appearing on the March 8th Sailing Facebook page are really something to see.
