NORWEGIAN JADE leaving Funchal

NCL cruise ship NORWEGIAN JADE photographed on 29 December 2010 while leaving Funchal, Madeira Island.
I had just arrived from Lisbon for a few days of passenger shipping photography and the JADE was the first one.
Sorry if the photo was not up to my usual standard of quality, but with the present security measures and port restrictions, it is harder than ever to photographs the ships, and the cruise terminal in Madeira is now a secluded fortress...
NORWEGIAN JADE was built in Papenburg by the Meyer shipyard and delivered to NCL America as PRIDE OF HAWAII. She was renamed in February 2008. She is the fourth of six sister ships of the NORWEGIAN STAR class built between 2001 and 2007 for NCL.
