Anthem of the Seas Ready for Float-Out
Anthem of the Seas, the latest cruise ship being built by Germany’s Meyer Werft, will leave the building dock II of the company’s Papenburg shipyard on Saturday, February 21.
The 168.600-gt cruise ship Anthem of the Seas, one of the largest cruise ship in the world, is scheduled to leave the shipyard’s covered building dock II early morning around 07.00 am.
The ship is built for the US cruise operator Royal Caribbean International.
Following the float-out, the Anthem of the Seas will be berthed alongside the yard’s pier for one night, before being turned on in the yard’s harbour for the thruster and stabiliser tests.
With the ship berthed at the yard’s pier, the remaining interior works as well as tests and trials will be carried out on board until the ship’s conveyance down the river Ems to the North Sea, which is scheduled for mid of March.
