Boarding RSS Intrepid At Vivocity

Taken from the third floor of Vivocity

I was lucky to have successfully balloted for a boarding pass to board the RSS Intrepid today.

Balloting have since ended but they are still giving out limited same-day boarding passes at the booth outside AOBA Hokkaido Ramen (#01-04). 

You have two more days (16, 17 March) to try your luck if you want to board the Frigate.

Expect some steep climbing (don't wear heels and skirts, ladies!) and walking through narrow passageways. The ladders are steep, about 110° so no infants-in-arms for safety reasons.

The RSS Intrepid is berthed along the stretch towards the Sentosa Boardwalk and admission is according to the allocated timeslot on your boarding pass.

I have taken some photos on my camera but I'll post the ones from my instagram first. Bookmark this page and I will update as soon as I complete editing the photos.

RSS Intrepid, a Formidable-class Frigate from the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) was recently deployed to the Gulf of Aden as part of an international counter-piracy task force. 

This coming Friday (15th March), the RSS Intrepid will sail into VivoCity Promenade and berth for public visits onboard. 

Check out some of the latest weapons and gear used by the elite Naval Divers at the booth. There will be photobooth for kids to take a picture dressed in either Navy's smart whites or pixelated uniforms!
