Lengthening Project Begins on Fred. Olsen's Braemar

The operation to cut the vessel in half was completed on 17th May. The new section has been moved into place and work has now begun on connecting the forward section of the ship with the new part.

The 31.2 metre section will add accommodation for an additional 250 passengers, increasing the total passenger capacity from 727 to 977. Much of this accommodation will also include balconies, bringing the total number of cabins and suites with this facility to 70 (including the Owner’s Suite).

Deck 8 will see the biggest addition to passenger facilities with a brand new Observatory Lounge, Grampian Restaurant, and pool area with two pools and a children’s pool as well.
