VOYAGER OF THE SEAS (1999/137276grt/IMO 9161716) rounds North Head inbound to Auckland, New Zealand. She berthed in Auckland today becoming the largest vessel to come alongside Princes Wharf since 11 February 1974.

Thirty-eight years ago it was the 66350-tonne 'France', pride of the French Line.

Even today, France at 315.5m, remains the longest ship ever to grace Auckland's principal cruise ship berth. The 13-year-old Voyager of the Seas, despite weighing-in at 137276grt, more than twice the gross tonnage of France, is just 311m.

However, records are made to be broken and France will next month lose her long-standing No. 1 placing with the arrival of Celebrity Cruises' 316m 'Celebrity Solstice' on 19 December. 28 November 2012. Photo by © SeapixOnline.com
