Hazydavo Posted October 2, 2014 #626 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Interesting pattern! Still heading out at 10 knots... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted October 2, 2014 #627 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Good to see Sea Princess has been repaired, Princess Cruises has received some flack over the issue, much of it uncalled for. Ships do break down, like any other mechanical device. I think some cruisers have gone over the top with their attacks on Princess. Those who missed their cruises have been very fairly compensated in my opinion. One of my golfing friends who had his Sea Princess cruise shortened from Fremantle a few weeks ago is more than happy with the compo, OBC, future cruise discounts etc. God bless Sea Princess and all who sail in her.

Hazydavo Posted October 3, 2014 #628 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Still heading out slowly at 6 knots... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted October 3, 2014 #629 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Still heading out slowly at 6 knots... The seas just north east of the heads can be tricky with swells, etc, (Pacific meeting Tasman). It will be a good test of her performance for her going in and out without getting out too far that a rescue or limp would leave her vulnerable.

Hazydavo Posted October 4, 2014 #635 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Will it is a good sign isn't it that she's still out at sea... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Kruzer Posted October 4, 2014 #636 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Sea Princess is showing up again on Marine Traffic. She looks like she is heading in towards the heads at Sydney. The info box has her arriving Sydney at 09.00 UTC time. I think thats 7pm Sydney time. Looks like they are planning a Saturday night sail in to show her off ?.:D Wonder if she will dock or go back into drydock? What time does Dawn Princess sail out? For those who did not know , they will think its the same ship going and coming back again. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozmonkeyboy Posted October 4, 2014 #637 Share Posted October 4, 2014 I am on the Dawn now at White Bay. We sail out at 4pm. Probably won't see her as we are heading south to Tassie. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sea Princess is operating out of Brisbane for the next several months and the re-provisioning would have already been organised before this last disruption to the schedule occurred.

ozmonkeyboy Posted October 4, 2014 #642 Share Posted October 4, 2014 We'll be under the bridge approx 4.30pm and thru the heads around 5.30pm. Nice day for a Sailaway.

Yes of course, I meant for the week or so to get to Brisbane, they wouldn't have had anything much since Freo, unless the stocked up when in drydock.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johhno Posted October 4, 2014 #649 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Also on the Dawn now ,as we sailed out of the heads we could see the Sea princess heading back in . Once the pilot was off we came to a stop and the pilot headed over to board the Sea. It was if captains had a moment with the two ships meeting just outside the heads.
