Scientology is bursting with news about its aging cruise ship, which is totally not sinking

 

On Monday, after we’d wondered about Joy Villa’s lowly schlepping of Scientology at a seaside vendor’s table in England, we posted Joy’s own ringing endorsement of the gig. She said that she was having a whale of a time selling copies of Dianetics to the punters, and who are we to say otherwise, right?

Well, we’ve also been posting some pretty dim looks at Scientology’s private cruise ship, the Freewinds, which used to wander all over the Caribbean but since the pandemic hit has mostly stuck to port in Aruba, asking Scientologists to come and experience its “OT Bubble.”

A couple of times, say our eagle-eyed researches who keep watch on the vessel, it’s made short trips from Aruba to Curaçao for repairs. And now, in the newest issue of Freewinds magazine, Scientology is boasting about what a success this was.

So, once again, in the interest of equal time, we thought we’d help Scientology disseminate the good news.

 
OK, so the ship can stay afloat for now. But what about Maiden Voyage? This time of year, David Miscavige usually has the richies out to the Freewinds for a special week of fleecing.

Like all international events, it’s been on hold during the pandemic. But now that things are getting a little better, will there be no party on the barge?

Over at Mike Rinder’s blog, he posted this sad flier that suggested Maiden Voyage will strictly be a local affair at various orgs. This one will take place this morning at the Hollywood Celebrity Centre…
