We too got spoiled with a C cabin on MINT so for the 62 day S.A. trip on the Mariner we also booked a C. After reading that some of the bathrooms have been remodeled with a shower only, I called RSSC to find out what our configuration is (#902) and was told ours still has the tub/shower combination. I was happy to hear this! I like having the option to soak or to shower as we never had any problem with the size of the tub/shower combination. (Tom is 5'9" and I'm 5' 2 1/2" so we're not so tall)

Kathy, I think you're going to love the Mariner! Funny, we too have cruised on the Orient Marco Polo...not too many of us around!
