Deck 8
The bow end of Deck 8 holds the senior officers cabins. The wheel house or bridge which is their working area is just two decks above.
With the continuous responsibility they have for the safety of the ship, their living quarters are required to be close to their work station. The remainder of this deck is taken up by passenger cabins and modern dischoteque with very fancy lighting and sound equipment.
Above this deck is the lifeboat platform, which is not a complete deck. The layout of the platform is narrower than the beam of the ship. The number of lifeboats and rafts differs from vessel to vessel and are able to accommodate all passengers and crew of the ship in the event of disaster. Some of these boats are used to transport passengers back and forth to the small islands when the ship lies at anchor.
