EURODAM UPDATE


Eurodam, the 80th ship to enter Holland America Line service, will be handed over at Fincantieri’s Marghera shipyard in Venice on June 14. The 86,700gt vessel will then head for the UK port of Southampton where she is expected to arrive on June 26 and stay overnight for promotional events before moving onto Rotterdam to be named on July 1. Capable of carrying 2,104 passengers, Eurodam is the largest ship in Holland America’s fleet. Fincantieri is also building a sister ship, as yet unnamed, due to enter service in autumn 2010.
