tonyfsu21 Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 Maybe I’m late to the party here but am I reading this right? Based on the deck plans is there a dry slide option to go from deck 8 to deck 7? If so, my kids are going to go nuts!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottD Posted December 18, 2023 Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 it doesn't look like it goes down a deck, I assume its just on deck 8. There is nothing on deck 7 that shows where it ends. Just those stairs connect 7 and 8. tonyfsu21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted December 18, 2023 Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 I suspect that this floor plan simply shows where the dry slide passes by on this deck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it has a multi level dry slide...looking at the deck plans, that's the only deck I see that listed. I'm assuming its just a one level sliding board type thing??

TheMaxRebo Posted December 18, 2023 Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 Going through the deck plans there is also mention of "dry slide" on deck 16 - so maybe goes from 16 Dow to 8? WAAAYTOOO and SallyPort 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you review an Oasis class ship w/ Abyss dry slide the entry is noted on the print but the exit on deck 6 is not labeled leaving me to believe this “dry slide” on Icon may start on deck 8 and take you to deck 7. It’s a stretch given the implications of an unsafe human pile up at the bottom but still a possibility. It would be even stranger to put a random slide on deck 7 that goes nowhere.

bobroo Posted December 18, 2023 Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 Maybe these are slides for really young kids??? Think of them less as features and more like objects. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoobCruise Posted December 18, 2023 Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 I personally am all for having more slides and fewer staircases. Vancity Cruiser and CrimsonCruiser 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMaxRebo Posted December 20, 2023 Report Share Posted December 20, 2023 noticed in this overhead shot you can see the dry slide that is on Deck 16 - looks like it just also follows a staircase down one flight WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeWhoWaits Posted December 20, 2023 Report Share Posted December 20, 2023 Which will create more issues - drunk dads sliding or adventerous kids climbing up the slides? I would have fallen into both categories in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure that's a real picture of the ship, not that it matters. If it's on the deck plans I am sure it will be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMaxRebo Posted December 22, 2023 Report Share Posted December 22, 2023 Think I found the dry slide on Deck 16 in this video someone took earlier this month when it was in dry dock (pretty cool video overall) - it is at the 3:20 mark tonyfsu21 and NoobCruise 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
