March 23, 2011 on 8:08 am | In Adventure Travel, Cruise Boats, Pacific Northwest | Comments Off

American Cruise Lines’ multimillion-dollar renovation of the Queen of the West, which operates one-week cruises from Portland, Ore., is nearing completion. Reconstruction of major areas, including passenger staterooms, community areas, the galley and engine room, continues in Portland and progress remains ahead of schedule. New furniture for the entire ship, custom-built in North Carolina, is ready and has arrived in Portland.

A new paddlewheel has been built, along with additional propulsion equipment that allows for quieter, smoother cruising while having less impact on the environment. Other additions, such as larger staterooms, more private balconies and a new library have already been completed. New carpet is being laid, and decoration throughout the Queen of the West is being revamped. For more information, call 800-814-6880 or visit www.americancruiselines.com.
