Hawaii Economy – Pride of America Cruise Ship Renovated at Pearl Harbor


Workers at the Pearl Harbor Shipyard are currently doing renovation work on the Pride of America cruise ship.  The $39 million work would take approximately two weeks to complete and would include adding 24 new luxury sites, four new studio staterooms, a Brazilian-style steakhouse, new carpets, flat panel TVs and other upgrades.  Due to recent budget cuts to the United States Navy, the dry-docks at Pearl Harbor have not seen as much work as years past.  Federal law allows underused assets like the Pearl Harbor Shipyard to conduct commercial work for private companies.
