| Dundee’s growing reputation as a port of call for cruise ships was boosted today with the arrival of hundreds of passengers aboard the Seven Seas Navigator, writes Grant Smith.
The 33,000-tonne, 560-feet-long vessel is the sister ship of the Seven Seas Voyager, which docked at the harbour in June, and of the Hanseatic, here last month.
The Navigator, which caters primarily for American tourists, left Copenhagen on August 6 and visited Olso, Bergen and the Norwegian fjords before crossing the North Sea. New passengers were joining her today for the start of her next cruise to New York, taking in Iceland, Greenland and Canada on the way.
Lord Provost John Letford went aboard today to welcome the ship to the city and the Navigator was due to leave harbour around 6pm. |
