dkjretired Posted September 20, 2012 #6 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Normal situation, they are doing their sea trials to see if she can do what she was contracted out to do. Turnover to Celebrity will follow if everything is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Essiesmom Posted September 21, 2012 #13 Share Posted September 21, 2012 The first vehicle I had that had a compass in it, occasionally would need to be recalculated. I would have to go into a parking lot and do a tight circle to set it right. It always worked. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to do a figure of eight with it to recalculate. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grayjay Posted September 21, 2012 #16 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I thought you meant donuts, as in crispy creme!!! I got excited!!!:D That's what I meant, too! ;);) Even if donuts are not exactly health food, they're yummy and I had hoped for another addition to the café area: crépes, donuts, real scones with clotted cream....

c-legs Posted September 22, 2012 #18 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Hi, In this particular case, calibrating the nautical compass is part of the basis sea trials prior to handover. Actually, recalibration of the compass is fairly routinely carried out; this summer alone in EnlighBay here in Vancouver, we've witnessed 4 of them , including Century about 2 months ago. The Master had pre-warned the guests about his intents. It was actually ''cute'' to see her do two ''figure 8''s in the middle of English Bay.
