Posted on by Reply
A nice gallery app to view gorgeous vessel pics.

Shouldn't take that long.

FleetMon Photobox on the iPadI was told that nobody likes to read long texts on the internet. So, here’s the essential stuff:

FleetMon Photobox 1.2 – a tiny app to browse our community’s gorgeous vessel pictures – just survived the approval process and should be visible in the AppStore really soon.

Beside the usual bug fixes, this version supports the iPad in its native shinyness… enjoy the class ship photography on FleetMon.com on your sofa… it’s “couch spotting” ;-)

As always: Thanks to the contributors! Boys, you have no idea how much we love your awesome work.

[Update] It’s there. Grab it while it’s hot!

Cruise Ship DISNEY FANTASY one step closer to Port Canaveral

Posted on by Reply


The newest Disney Cruise Line ship, the Fantasy, has moored today in Eemshaven, after she floated out of its enclosed building dock at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Germany last week.

The vessel reached its final final stages of construction. This marks another milestone as the vessel heads toward its March 31 maiden voyage from Port Canaveral.
Almost a year ago, the Fantasy’s sister ship, the Dream, embarked on its maiden voyage from Port Canaveral, where it is based.
Both the Dream and the Fantasy are 4,000-passenger ships. They’re 40 percent larger than their two older fleet-mates, the Magic and the Wonder, which have been repositioned from Port Canaveral.
