| Post subject: | S.S. Rotterdam update |
Today Jan Roersma, CEO of Hotel Cruiseship Operations 2 BV (HCO2), made clear that his company needs more time to prepare the deal with Port of Rotterdam to take over the s.s. Rotterdam. Safety is, next to remunerativeness of the project, one of the most important issues on board. A careful completion of the asbestos clean up is an essential part of it. Moreover, the negotiations about refurbishment are still going on, and more clearness is necessary about fire protection and berth. Jan Roersma goes for a highly qualified ship that can be used for at least 25 years. A sound preparation is needed therefor. By the way, several companies and organisers of events are showing interest in using the ship when she will be at her berth in the Maashaven in Rotterdam. ------------------------------------------------------------ Nederlands: http://www.stoomschiprotterdam.nl English: http://www.stoomschiprotterdam.nl |
