Azamara Quest photographed in Liverpool on 8 July 2015.
I have been struggling to get to Liverpool recently and it was good that a meeting in the City coincided with her visit.
Built by Atlantique in St.Nazaire she was completed in 2000 as Yard Number y31 and is 181m long with a 25.48m beam and 5.95m draught.
Originally she was built for Renaissance Cruises as R Seven but following the collapse of this Company in 2001 she was laid up for two years until being chartered by Delphin Seereisen and being renamed Delphin Renaissance. In 2006 she was sold to Pullmantur Cruises and sailed as Blue Moon until being acquired by Azamara where she entered service on 27 October 2007.
She carries approximately 710 passengers (double occupancy) plus 410 crew.
In March 2012 the ship suffered a fire in one of her engine rooms South of the Phillipines, a number of crew were injured although the fire was quickly contained. In November 2012 she had an eight day dry dock which in addition to a newly painted hull also resulted in new soft furnishings, a new steam room and a new caviar and champagne bar being installed
Azamara joined the cruise industry in 2007 after Royal Caribbean acquired Pullmantur, Celebrity Cruises who are part of the Royal Caribbean Group taking on the vessel. The line was however rebranded as Azamara Club Cruises in April 2010.

RUBY PRINCESS

Carnival Corporations extended Grand Class cruise ship Ruby Princess photographed in Liverpool on 29 May 2014.
She is I believe the largest cruise ship I have seen in Liverpool and one of the largest vessels I have seen on the River Mersey apart from a small number of VLCC's which unfortunately are infrequent visitors to the terminal at Tranmere. I thought that finding specific details about this ship would be easy but there is so much conflict on specific details between otherwise very relaible sources that this has not been the case. I have however tried my best. She was built by Fincantieri at Monfalcone in Italy as Yard Number 6150. Laid down in June 2007 she was launched in February 2008, christened on 6 November 2008 by Trista and Ryan Sutter and undertook her maiden voyage on 8 November 2008. She is 289.61m long with a 36.05m beam and 8.50m maximum draught.

Passenger capacity is 3592 (although this varies depending where you look!) over 15 decks in a variety of family suites, mini suites, balcony cabins, ocean view cabins and inside cabins.Crew complement is approximately 1200 and she is equipped with 18 lifeboats, 6 tenders and 2 rescue boats.

THE WORLD
The World is a private residential community-at-sea where its Residents may travel the globe without ever leaving home. Since it first set sail in 2002, The World has visited over 800 ports in approximately 140 countries. With a
continuous worldwide itinerary that enables the vessel to span the globe every two-to-three years, the ship is a complete floating hotel, equipped with high-end facilities and luxurious amenities that create an intimate, refined
atmosphere for Resident owners.
Knut U. Kloster Jr., the visionary behind The World, grew up in a family that was passionate about life at sea. After many years of working and vacationing on the world’s best yachts and cruise ships, Kloster had a dream to create a way in which travelers never had to get off board. As such, in 1997 he gathered together a team of experienced professionals and began working on the first vessel where people could travel the globe without leaving home. Kloster’s dream was realized in March 2002 when he delivered The World in October 2003.
There are 165 Residences aboard ranging from studios to expansive three-bedroom units and a palatial six-bedroom penthouse suite, which boasts accommodations for up to 12 people.
Facilities on board include a spa and four major restaurants.
