MrPete Posted October 28, 2012 Author #11 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Getting out of the harbor is one thing - but where is she going to go after that? Someone on board posted that the captain said they were going to snug the coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLCruiser001 Posted October 28, 2012 #17 Share Posted October 28, 2012 If you're looking at the skies, you missing the meat. I see a few small whitecaps here and there. Just watched the NCL ship go out. Smooth as glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, two ships sailing side by side in bad weather isn't that usual, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was beautiful watching them sail out together, synchronized sailing :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nybumpkin Posted October 28, 2012 #20 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Someone on board posted that the captain said they were going to snug the coast. Okay, that makes sense. I noticed on Marine Traffic that when Pride was sailing back to Baltimore she was closer to shore than I've ever seen her sail. And when we returned to NYC on Glory after Hurricane Earl in 2010 we sailed 6 miles off Cape Cod - never sailed that close to land before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the title of this thread induces one to believe that footage the likes of which has never been seen before will be witnessed by all, thanks to the OP. Looks like ordinary, everyday, run-of-the-mill footage to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like ordinary, everyday, run-of-the-mill footage to me. Perhaps the point your missing is this is Miracle vs. Sandy. In Pride vs. Sandy, Sandy won. In Glory vs Sandy, Sandy won. This is the last of the triple crown. But if watching cruise ships sail out of NY is ordinary, everyday, run-of-the-mill to you, close the window. GO find a baby in the hot tub thread. And bless your heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPete Posted October 28, 2012 Author #25 Share Posted October 28, 2012 It's amazing that the funnel of that ship was built "shortened" to fit under that bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
