Update...
Due to another engine problem developing in the last few days...over and above what was already wrong...the ship has now been taken out of service for repairs. The July 13 cruise has been scrubbed and the next cruise due to depart on July 25 is still being advertised on VoD's website.
If the July 25 cruise is scrubbed too, it will be posted here. It sounds like the other engine wasn't able to cope with the extra load added to it from the one already disabled engine. I assume that VoD anticipated that the ship could hang on til the winter season, but obviously that plan has now gone out of the window.
