The
ship Maasdam is from the luxury class cruise ships from the company
Holland America Line. The cruise ship was built 1993 and is a little
bit old for this sector of maritime transport, but it is really
luxury and beautiful. Actually in the newly built, shining vessels,
something from the spirit is missing. This can be got only on board
of older cruise ship, just like this one. The capacity of Maasdam
is not so big – 1,266 passengers, who will be served from
561 crew members. The ship is really amazing and good looking in
spite of the ages. The length of Maasdam is 219.45 meters and the
beam is 33.52 meters. The cruise ship has draft of 6.59 meters,
which gives deadweight of 55,451 metric tons. The cruise ship Maasdam
is well known around the cruise lovers. The ship is beautiful designed
and the outlooking is really nice. The ship is equipped with most
modern and environmental equipment for the ages of building. Maasdam
is ship part of the long history of Holland America Cruises and
the ship definitely describes good the sense of cruise shipping.
The ship is really nice place for your vacation, for finding new
friends and spending good moments with your family.
The ship is giving the sense of freedom and also very
comfortable vacation on board. The staterooms are divided into several
categories –
