Has anyone seen the "New and Improved" Navigator yet? Karen: Is there a web cam of her?

Here she is docked with two HA ships, neither has a cam. Here is the cam from that picture that you can use if you scroll down the page a bit, but beware, it's controllable and most annoying!

And Here is another cam where we can watch her sail away at 5pm ET

Here is an article where Mark Conroy talks about the refit.

And I can't tell for sure but I think this is the Navigator peaking out from the side of the Carnival Destiny:

Here are some comparison photos of the Navigator before and after the recent drydock. I think you can see the evidence of the ducktail which was added for stability:

Haven't figured out how to embed the pictures in the post, itself.

Those are GREAT shots and you can really see that addition at the aft of the ship. Hopefully that takes away the vibration.

Has anyone been on board the Navigator in an aft suite (Category F) since the refit? Or anyone who has noticed a change in vibration in the dining rooms aft. I'm sure many of us are interested in how the new "ducktail" is helping out with the vibration previously reported in the aft sections of the ship.
