In the distance is the laid-up P & O cruise ship Arcadia. Arcadia is operated by P & O cruises and was built in 2004 in Italy. Initially ordered for Holland America line and then allocated to Cunard she ended up with P & O. As a result she appears more like a Cunard vessel than a P & O one. She is of 84,342 GRT, 289.9 m long and propelled by ABB azipods with a total of 6 Wartsila diesel alternator sets generating a total of 51,840 kW (69,520 horsepower).
