M a l t a Drydock Awarded $10-Million Contract To Upgrade P & O Cruise Ship
P&O Cruises has announced the signing of a $10-million contract with Malta Drydocks to upgrade the liner Sea Princess prior to her joining the Los Angeles-based Princess fleet. In addition to major refurbishing of passenger areas, the ship will be fitted with five new Wartsila Vasa diesel generators, with Stromberg alternators, and the main switchboard will be upgraded by British Brown Boveri Limited. A new Atlas evaporator will utilize waste heat from the gensets' cooling systems.
Following the refit, the Sea Princess has a program of cruises in the Caribbean this winter. In the summer she will operate 10-day cruises from San Francisco to Alaska as part of P&O's Alaskan Holidays program.
