Although I have yet to sail on the Equinox the older ships (Century, Constellation and Galaxy) hold a special place in the cruising world. They represent all that cruising is about.. elegance, size and service that I have not yet experienced on the newer ships...I repeat..not yet..lol.. The richness of the fittings, wood and decor make them special in my mind...not to mention the mid-size that many of us preferred. Even if they weren't being retrofitted I'd still cruise with them in a heart beat
Guess you can just call me an old fashioned cruiser.
