Description:

Now with her main superstructure installed, so you can see the differences between two batches: two decks below the wheelhouse are narrower, and have received windows (VIP cabins, maybe?).
Also, the whole 6+13+5 bays arrangement looks less balanced, at least to me.

Thanks for your comments, Andrew and Roy.

@Andrew, yes, they will be easy to distinguish from the first batch.

@Roy, I was one of those who expected the lower superstructure, actually I feared it, as then we'd have something along the lines of Hyundai "Planet" series, with low and bulky bridge structure.
So, luckily, they've kept the height of 10 levels above main deck, but the three decks below the bridge are not higher than the 1st batch, they have same number of levels, only now they are narrower still...

Cheers

Great shot Vlad!,
Well definitely not a lower accommodation.
It seems that the narrow part, between bridge and main part of accommodation, gained one deck.
Without the lashing bridges in front of it, it looks rather massive.
I guess 9 or even 10 high on her first bay.
Royal Navy in front of her?
Cheers,
Roy

Super catch as always Vlad, it will be easy to distinguish them at a distance from the first series.

Thanks for your comments, Ian and Jan. Even if the bridge structure has the same number of decks like the first batch, the total height will be higher due to higher hull - and the vessel is still missing her forward lashing bridges, so I am still waiting for the complete impression... :)

Cheers

So it looks as if the deckhouse was NOT raised (unless maybe slightly), compareed to the EEE-1 series. Also looks as if the masts have gone from 'solid' to 'foldable'for reduced air draft?
