"Breakers" question - Norway
 

I received an email from one of the yahoo cruise groups.

In the message, the OP stated:

----
"I've just been told by somebody close to the crew members of the ss
Norway that the ss Norway has just been sold to the breakers the day
she just left the title of "longest passenger ship in the world"...

Can anybody confirm this terrific news ???"
-----

First, what is the "breakers"? Does that mean sold for scrap?

And secondly, does anyone know anything about this? I have been googling,
and can't find anything.

It would be for scrap. And it's ONLY a rumor at this point. A "he
said/she said" sort of thing. Nobody has actually confirmed or denied it.

First of all, I wonder how anybody could consider this "terrific news"
- it actually would be terrible news.

First, what is the "breakers"? Does that mean sold for scrap?


Yes, that's what it means.

And secondly, does anyone know anything about this? I have been googling,

It's a rumor spread by somebody who was told about it by an anonymous
"former crew member". This is just one of dozens of rumors which have
been around during the last months.

Hi!

For what it's worth, I have received word from a source at Lloyd Werft
that the S/S "Norway" is scheduled to enter drydock at Lloyd Werft in
April. Please keep in mind that this does not necessarily mean she
will return to the NCL fleet. Also, this information has not yet been
officially confirmed.

JIm, Idiot Jim, where are you? Here is some more of your classified
information being "blabbed" by miscreant anti-US Europeans. I vote
for treason and death.

How about you, Jim? Huh?
