CruisinMaterial Posted June 24, 2010 #176 Share Posted June 24, 2010 OK, I need to run errands and be back in less than 2 hours. If I don't go now, we may have a toilet issue in our house later. That is no paper!:eek: and I don't want to be interrupted as I watch the departure! See you all soon! :D Wow... that would require a serious intervention! LOL... we'd have to get you pink slipped!! LOL :p Go do your errands and drive safely! Your excuse for an accident to get home to stalk a cruise ship might not go over too well with law enforcement!!! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinMaterial Posted June 24, 2010 #182 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Here are the webcams I know about in the order that the Epic will pass them: Southampton: http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/webcams.htm Cowes: http://www.cowesharbourweather.com/webcam.aspx Ryde: http://www.ais-live.co.uk/aismap/AIS%20Maps/solentcam.html for webcam and AIS map http://www.solentship.co.uk/Webcam/ for just the webcam Ventnor: http://www.burlingtonhotel.uk.com/webcam.htm The last link is the hotel webcam which was mentioned in another thread. You will want to change the view to "Ventnor". I don't know if there will be a good view from that webcam. If she passes that Ventnor webcam, it will probably be a distant view. Links for the new page so everyone can watch!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinMaterial Posted June 24, 2010 #191 Share Posted June 24, 2010 ooohhh 0.2 knots it's moving! I saw that too... not sure what she's doing but she's still tied up there. Maybe we'll go do something and she'll sneak off when we can't see her! :eek::D I can only do this until 1PM EDT and then I have to move on to other things so someone get SpongeBob off the bridge and get her moving already!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinMaterial Posted June 24, 2010 #193 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Um... I think she's moving now... not sure.... :cool: There is a tug boat or something of the sorts just down the channel chilling out so I am wondering if they are getting a fire boat to escort her out??

14ersco Posted June 24, 2010 #194 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Earlier in this thread someone asked how fast the Epic would need to go to make NYC in time. This is my calculation: Each 1 knot is equal to 1 nautical mile per hour Per Google there are 2967 nautical miles between Southampton and NYC The cruise is about 7.5 days which is 180 hours So I get an average speed of 16.5 knots (2967 / 180) for the Epic to make NYC the morning of July 1. Of course this delay is not helping the average. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orangegrove Posted June 24, 2010 #197 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I have every camera open but don't see her! Where are you looking? There are no webcams right at the port you have to use the marine traffic website. http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/default.aspx?zoom=10&mmsi=311018500¢erx=-2.188832¢ery=47.28401# The big blue ships are passenger ships.

I have that open, too. I thought people were actually seeing the ship herself somewhere. I was about to be frantic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted June 24, 2010 #199 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I have every camera open but don't see her! Where are you looking? The first camera view takes forever for her to show up... about 10 minutes after she's gone PAST the camera does she show up. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
