Finally we have passed all our testing and monitoring with DNV!! ( Det Norske Veritas is a classification agency and advisor for over 40% of worldwide cruise ships.) Sea trials went great with all equipment performing as it should. So now DNV has to submit all the paperwork to the various agents and they expect to have our PSSC ( Passenger Ship Safety Certification) in place Wednesday, meaning we can come on the ship and stay!! Woohoo!! Thursday and Friday MCA (United Kingdom, Maritime and Coastguard Agency) and Public Health are expected to make their final inspections. So the plan is Saturday, September 28th we should set sail !!
The itinerary is still being worked out with port agents to head south via France, Spain, Azores, Bermuda & Bahamas - more to come.
