From the charts it looks a though 3 not so little white dots are steaming towards Samson and Goliath ..Viking Sea, Viking Sky and Viking Sun --could provide a welcome fillip ( and indeed fillup !!) for the yard and the SP in short term --watch this space -I am not an expert on charts and but I also have it from good authority that we are the destination ....will we have room for all 3 !?? That IS THE QUESTION !!
Three cruise ships ..... nice, I see Sky and sea are due In the morning, interesting stuff. Thanks for sharing , Dawski
You are a star Dawski! A gem of a find and certainly validates what Harland was acquired for.
Reading past RNSes, I do believe that there is sufficient space to accommodate all three!
Bring it on!
Great info Dawski. Ta for sharing here.
Here's a post from Cruise Industry News from 2 months ago. Maybe the contracts referred to in this include the Viking ships.

Hi dawski37 - The following are the links to the three ships you mentioned & having looked at them they will certainly cause a stir locally lets hope the SP reflects the potential value if found that they are destined for H&W.

Well they are entering Belfast this morning, all 3 of them- they look quite impressive!
Can’t wait to see pictures on twitter, linkedin etc. great publicity for the yard. Inching closer to the cash break even that JW promised.
They way it is going, I think Break even is a definite- Not many companies can break even in a year- That will be impressive and probably the turning point once the penny drops with the market. IMHO
The Viking's could just be using the dock to fumigate the ships, as I remember some of the comments made to JW's linked in post mentioned that process. but without clarity we can only guess.
