Black Watch has completed her recent dry dock in December 2009 and returns to service following some major refurbishment work.
The work included a major refurbishment of the ship’s public areas, including a new casual dining area, which has been created in the space where the Braemar Lounge and Garden Café were situated.
The transformed area is now the Braemar Garden, a casual dining area with seating for 120 persons, and replaces the Garden Café which seated 80 persons. One section of this newly created dining area is screened off, creating a 40 seat room that can be used for private dining. This new area has been completely refitted with new soft furnishings, a new bar, and buffet. 
Other areas of the ship have also received new soft furnishings, including the Neptune Lounge, Pipers Bar, Glentanar Restaurant and the Observatory Lounge. In addition, many cabin bathrooms have been refitted.
On the technical side, the Black Watch cruise liner has also had her last three open lifeboats replaced by two covered boats.
This means that some previously restricted views from cabins will now be unobstructed views.
