Cruise line
AmaWaterways
Current water on the corridors this line's catalogue uses, compared with the level Waterlogged calculates a ship of this size wants.
Waterlogged is not affiliated with AmaWaterways, and no cruise line uses a Waterlogged clear-line operationally.
Which ship
Waterlogged class clear-line, using an assumed class draught of 1.55 m. This line does not publish which hull runs which sailing, so this is a class assumption — not a fact about your ship, and not a figure the operator has given us.

A Waterlogged clear-line is our own arithmetic: the gauge reading at which the published reference depth, minus the ship's draught and a fixed safety allowance, still leaves a comfortable margin. It is not an operator's decision rule and no cruise line uses it.

Operator policies change without notice and differ by booking market and contract version. Waterlogged does not calculate your refund, credit, hotel entitlement or insurance payout, and does not determine cancellation rights or legal remedies. Read the operator's own documents and the terms attached to your booking, and do not cancel pre-emptively on the strength of river data alone.
Linking is not endorsement. The publisher controls its own page, its own values and its own terms. Cruise-line names identify the operator's own documents and remain the property of their owners.
