Lenghtened Braemar rejoins Fred. Olsen fleet



Braemar, the second cruise liner Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has lenghtened and modernised, has re-entered service after work being carried out at the Blom & Voss shipyard in Germany. A 31.2 metre midsection increased the ship's length to 195 metres and gross tonnage to about 23,500 from 19,089. Earlier this year, the company lengthened Balmoral, which at 43,000 grss tons is the largest ship in its fleet, before introducing the vessel on the UK market. Fred. Olsen has increased its capacity by 60% this year thanks to these two moves.
