Allure and Adventure Drydock

[DunkelBierJay]

Since both ships are in dry dock near each other, has anyone seen any pics? I have been searching and haven't found anything yet. The webcam in Freeport is offline.

I think Mr. Van Fleet is guilty of spreading some "fake news". The Allure did the bearing swap out in 2015. This trip to the dry dock is to replace a damaged propeller.

Never know.  They did 2/3 last time.  Maybe the damaged propeller also wore a bearing so maybe while it's in the shop up on jacks they plan to do the bearing just so they don't have to repeat this next year.

I agree. It is a lot less work to replace it all now then to have to do it all over again. It might cost a little now but would save a lot more.

That may very well be and it makes very good sense. But, Mr. Van Fleet made no mention of the propeller being replaced the need for the dry dock in his tweet. Perhaps he did a retweet from 2015?

So doing 2 makes sense if you have it in dry dock might as well.
