There is a whole flikr phohostream here (www.flickr.com), quite interesting pics if you're into that kind of thing.

600 seats, up from 360

6000 cables to be cut and reconnected

$40m spent on extending the ship

27% increase in rail capacity

30% increase in vehicle capacity

30-metre mid-body being installed to extend the ship to 183 metres in length

25% reduction in the amount of wake because of the new bow
