SCENIC Luxury Tours & Cruises’ Scenic Eclipse has experienced a technical issue, which will see her dry dock to carry out the maintenance from 28 Oct, the cruise line has said in a statement.
The issue, affecting one of Eclipse’s two Azipod propulsion units, was identified while she was sailing in the Arctic on 12 Sep.
It is expected to be fixed by early next month.
The work will require the cancellation of three upcoming voyages in the Caribbean and Brazil, with Eclipse scheduled to return to full operation for the Antarctica season, which begins in late Nov.
Eclipse has been operating safely at a reduced propulsion capacity since the issue was identified, and continues to navigate at lower speeds.
