As a gift, my wife and I will be sailing on the Holland America ms 
Zaandam this summer on an Alaskan Glacier Bay & Tracy Arm "Inside 
Passage" cruise.  I would love to monitor the ship's operations, and 
perhaps some of the public safety frequencies along the way.

Our itinerary includes departure from and return to Vancouver BC Canada, 
and (briefly) Juneau, Skagway, and Ketchikan AK, including Glacier Bay 
National Park.  Can you help me with any frequencies or advice on 
monitoring any of these locations?

I will me especially grateful for any advice on scanning the ship 
itself; have you had any experience with the Zaandam or Holland America?

I will carry a BC245XLT and a Pro-93, so files of any type can probably 
be used.  Many thanks for your help!
