In my opinion the last part of the sentence "In June 2019, after the ship was sailing into Bering Sea it entangled in a fishing net and causes propeller damage, forcing them way to repair the drydock." in the section Incidents implies that the drydock had to be repaired - which, I think, does not make any sense. The ship had to be repaired and for that repair had to deviate from the original routing to the drydock where the repair had to be done.

I suggest to change that sentence to "In June 2019, after the ship was sailing into Bering Sea it entangled in a fishing net which caused propeller damage, forcing them way to drydock for repairs."

In my view that change makes the sentence much clearer and the expressions are more in line with terminology used in the shipping and cruise industries. Moka.s-Onkel (talk) 07:17, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In the section "Service", the last sentence is currently "It will be transferred to Exploris in September 2023.[16]" I think this should be changed to "It will be transferred to Exploris in September 2023 to begin sailing in December 2023.[16]" This change is supported by the existing linked article 16. Interestingly the old owner Silversea is still listing October 2023 sailings on the same ship, but that's beside the point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lorenzolio (talk • contribs) 19:01, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
