CRUISE SHIP LOCATIONS 16 MAY 2021
Compiled by Mike Pryce, Wellington NZ
(Information believed correct at this date. Compiled from various sources and internet AIS, especially www.cruisemapper.com. Excludes ferries and cruise ferries.
Many cruise ships have been in “warm” lay-up, when they have periodically moved from their berths or anchorages and gone for short voyages locally to give their engines and equipment “a run”, and including production of freshwater, before returning to lay-up. Ships at anchor periodically need to berth to take onboard fuel, food, provisions and other supplies. Some inter-ship crew transfers at sea are being made, outside port limits.
With the resumption of “normal” cruising looking very uncertain in many countries in the near future, more cruise ships are likely to move to “cold” lay-up until the situation becomes clearer, whilst others go into shipyards for overhauls and surveys.
Many cruise ships have been in lay-up for over a year, as the initial “pause” has been continually extended due to more Covid-19 outbreaks, and many financial assumptions made on the expectation of an initial two-months lockdown have needed reviewing. This has resulted in many recent sales of older ships, and limited cruising in the Mediterranean and Europe, where these areas are being affected by sporadic outbreaks in Covid-19 infections.
The largest concentration of laid-up cruise ships is on the Bahamas Banks (east of Miami and south of Freeport)
A large number of cruise ships are anchored off the south coast of England, west of Southampton.
Another large group are anchored in the South China Sea, NE of Singapore.
Other cruise ships have moved from Europe and South America to the warmer climate of Las Palmas or Tenerife.
Updates and advice of corrections always welcome.
