    Wonder if they found any pies stuffed away when they ripped some of the interior out?

    It was made in Spain in between siestas so perhaps it came apart quite easy. Great idea to increase capacity now let's just get the Clifford Bay port built as well.

    Looks like the old bow was rather portly and is being replaced with one with a much finer entry.
    Probably better for cutting through the bigger waves encountered.
    Quite a substantial midsection module being added in.
