Royal Caribbean International’s Allure of the Seas has docked at the Ggrand Bahama Shipyard in Freeport, the Bahamas, for unscheduled repair work on her propulsion motors.
Over the next seven days, Grand Bahama will work on a 24/7 basis to ensure the work is completed on time.
“To perform this technically challenging work in this timeframe involves detailed planning and teamwork from the owners, the propulsion motor manufacturers and the yard,” said Carl-Gustaf Rotkirch, the yard’s chairman and CEO. “The facilities and skills we have readily available here in Freeport continually rise to the challenges posed by our customers. This type of docking has never been performed at any shipyard in the world, so by successfully undertaking this project, we have once again proved that we are a world leader.”
