Rare KeithJenner Posted October 29, 2015 #5676 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Just following the Escape and thought she would be berthed ready to leave at 1300 hrs. Eastern time ? 1700 Southhampton local. I see she appears to be out in the channel doing some maneuvers. Why is that ? Am I reading this wrong ? Thanks Gerry We've been out in the channel for the preview one nighter. Just got back into Southampton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Gerry Hi, I'm in a hotel in Hythe marinia across the Solent from Southampton Docks, and I have seen the Escape coming in to dock every morning at 7am (on the 27th, 28th and this morning 29th).

TSUmom Posted October 29, 2015 #5689 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Two things I want to say - I love most of this thread and the pictures and I am a smoker, I wish this would not have turned into a smoker vs non-smoker thread. (there are plenty of those on cc) I am a courteous smoker and never smoke in the casino or around others and I like the idea of a separate casino. Looking forward to more info and pictures of Escape and a big thank you to all contributing!! Yes, that was more than two things:D Happy sailing to all of you lucky people!!!

SmoothCruising Posted October 29, 2015 #5690 Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) The anti cigarette people make me smile lol. I wish the US government would just outlaw smoking, they put so many regulations on it they might as well. It is the most highly regulated thing that is still legal in the United States lol. I'm the most conservative and least politically correct person I know. But, just as smokers don't have the right to pollute the clean air I breath, I don't have the right to aim a high speed fan at their smoke-filled, tar-lined lungs.......or do I? And don't preach to me about someone's right to smoke. My dad smoked from the time he was 13 until his death and I saw first hand how cigarette smoke distroyed not only his lungs and life but some of those around him. And, I think we all know why corrupt and hypocritical governments don't outlaw cigarettes; follow the money trail. Not only do governments collect enormous tax revenue from cigarettes they also launder money, via bills and laws they pass, to their health care business buddies to treat those with medical conditions causes by first and second hand smoke. This will be my last post on the subject because I don't want to derail this thread any further. Looking forward to breathing fresh, clean sea air in February!

buckeye rob Posted October 29, 2015 #5694 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Did the one nighter just go into the solent, round the Isle of Wight or a bit further? Wasn't there Sully, but according to my marine tracker, Escape got about 30 km below the Isle of Wight and did about 2 or 3 parallel rectangles east 40 km about 30 km below Brighton. Hope I didn't horn in there. Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
