Norwegian Epic takes a bow

//Norwegian Epic takes a bow

What’s this, a rusty steel version of Jaws? No, it’s the 445-ton bow section of Norwegian Cruise Lines new mega-ship, Epic, being lowered into place at the shipyard in St Nazaire, France. It took 100 workers more than two hours to get it in place and – I hope – considerably longer to make sure the joints were securely welded. The 153,000-ton, 4,200-passenger ship should be finished by next May.
