It is open and operating now. I believe they are in what they are calling their "soft" opening, meaning that the high speed catamaran shuttles are not being used yet and the ship itself comes in to dock at the St. Pete Pier every night and departs every morning...so you are on for the full day if you go.
I have not been on it yet, so I can not offer an opinion or review. Their web site has been updated with the sailing schedule, and some pictures under the "about us" link (poker room is on the Ruby deck).
Looks like this was taken before they opened to full capacity:
Hmmm, hope these aren't the real chips they use: [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
