Did not like the design of this ship. Marketplace felt like you were sitting at an outdoor cookout with beach umbrellas and tables

That ship has had propulsion issues since February 2022 🤣 It's supposed to go into dry Dock a few months after it leaves Galveston.

I'm sure that's why it's heading to dry dock the beginning of 2024. Should be better after that.
