YouTube Video Description↓

This week we're chatting to a very good friend of mine, Shipmonk! I've known Dave for years and years and he knows more about cruising than anybody I've ever met. We've been on trips together all over the world to shipyards, new ships, and who knows what else. Dave is my number 1 source for all things cruise news. If you're on Facebook or Twitter I'm sure you will have seen him breaking the latest news (especially in our Facebook group). Plus, he's a pretty cool dude. Join us at 5 PM UK, (12 PM Eastern). Please bring your cruise questions!
