I read through another site that Octopus is going in for a refit.
Apparently it is now in St. Nazaire at the Penhoet Drydock awaiting a 6 month refit.
A company called ITM will be carrying out the work for a reported 10-12 million Euros!!
That's some refit!!

A refit so quickly?

I wonder what the cause is...

Hi,

If you play about with the above URL and change the page number down to 323 a page at a time you will see more pics of Octopus and some other Cruise ship parts

Yes I know K!W!. The parts you are seeing are of the MSC Splendida underconstruction at the Saint Nazzaire facility (I believe formerly Chantiers D L'Antique). Splendida is the sister to the new MSC Fantasia which is in fit out phase. In those final pics you can see octopus wrapped in cocoon. One could only imagine heavy works are going on.
