Does anyone wish they would have one of those big launching events where they would slide the ship down the dock into the water where it would splash in like in the olden days. That would be awesome.

Englisches Datum = monat/Tag/Jahr,
um Irrtümer zu vermeiden kann man den monat mit Buchstaben schreiben.
Das Schiff find ich nicht schön, sieht irgendwie auf maximale Passagiere getrimmt aus.

@xphs, then I stand corrected. I've missed all our excursions to Turku, so I have never seen any of those ships up close with my own eyes. Hopefully I'll get a chance to visit the Allure before she leaves :)

@tupsumato. Well, I don't think, I know. :) That is, atleast on the Voyager, Freedom and Genesis class ships that were made in Finland, the top decks and structures were all built from aluminium, with some steel support ofcource, but mainly aluminium.
-
@xphs, aluminium has some issues, so I think they are mostly using high-strength steel to make the superstructure lighter in large cruise ships. There are also other modern materials such as steel sandwich panels that can be used in some places.
-
@tupsumato Aluminium is used quite extensively in modern cruise ships today. It's used to make the ship less top heavy, by using aluminium instead of steel in the top superstructure of the ship. The only downsides are that aluminium is not as strong as steel, so the structures can't support as much weight and aluminium structures have a shorter lifespan then steel, so they need frequent repairs when the ship reaches an age of about 25 years.

You can also see photos from this on Google Earth; you must search for Meyerwerft - Papenburg.
