Silver Nova - September 2025 - Post 1

I rejoined my favourite ship Silver Nova in Singapore on September 25th for a 19 day voyage to Melbourne. As previously, the service, food and comfort aboard were excellent.

Bunkering LNG in Singapore.


Fabulous staff throughout. Friendly, obliging and efficient.



Most days I had lunch at the ship's buffet, starting with fresh tuna, scallops and smoked salmon - delicious.
At my 'deck office', by the Pool Bar.


Dinner in Silver Note - the ship's supper club.
