SHIP'S TINY HELPERS
COURTESY OF BAE SYSTEMS HAWAII SHIPYARDS
Norwegian Cruise Lines' Pride of America made shipyard workers look like Lilliputians yesterday in Dry Dock No. 4 at Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard. The cruise ship entered the Navy facility Saturday for two weeks of repair and maintenance work. The 921-foot-long, 90,000-ton ship is the largest private vessel ever to be dry-docked at Pearl Harbor, the only Hawaii facility able to handle the aircraft-carrier-size behemoth. The bulbous protrusion at the lower part of the bow is designed to alter the shape of the bow wave to reduce drag underway.
