If you don't think you can make it to this bad boy, don't fret. We just confirmed that we will be covering the cruise right here on Metal Injection! Noa, Frank and I will be boarding the ship and bringing you liveblogs, as well as photos and videos as the cruise happens. It's going to be nuts. Hope to see you there!
