Hurtigruten’s Finnmarken is currently undergoing a refurbishment at a drydock in the Norderwerft shipyard in Hamburg, Germany.

According to an update shared by the company, the project included the installation of a new propeller.

The new 14-ton unit was added to the ship over a two-day timeframe, which included a two-hour operation to put it in position.

After getting its new thruster, the 2002-built vessel was refloated for a series of tests while at dock near Hamburg’s HafenCity region.

According to Hurtigruten, work is now taking place onboard to get the Finnmarken ready to welcome guests back soon.

As previously reported by Cruise Industry News , Hurtigruten had to cancel a sailing onboard the ship to allow for the drydock .
