That's a closed group and it looks like you have to be a member to view posts.

The first one is obviously a screenshot from a mobile phone- note the black bars down the side ;).  Unless someone specifically tells you its ok to distribute their images then its not ok.  To those of us who go to the effort of going out and getting pictures this is a real problem.

Great pictures, thanks.  The severe bow hull line reminds me of the old Silja Line Finlandia and Siliva Regina, after they had their bows altered following their first year's service in 1981/82.

That's what it says there, but I note they haven't updated the date of the first sailing on that page which has been pushed back from the 12th.

Dont be surprised if WB Yeats substitutes for Epsilon on Holyhead run while they get used to her.

I wonder when Ulysses will finally go for drydocking. She is showing signs of a hard winter.

There was talk she would go once W.B. YEATS switched to Holyhead while the fast craft sits out winter.  It's not as though it's unusual for a vessel to go more than a year between dry dockings though.  Part of me wonders if they might take the opportunity to refresh some of the interior to make her more similar to WB Yeats, but that's just speculation on my part and I've seen nothing to suggest they'd even consider changing her.  After all there's only so much they could do before she'd lose her individual character.
