20pluscruises Posted June 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Anyone know why the Summit has still not left NJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestLakeGirl Posted June 2, 2014 #2 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Earlier today passengers reported delay in disembark due to Coast Guard inspections, that usually leads to subsequent delays in embarking and getting underway, maybe that's the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phxazzcruisers Posted June 2, 2014 #3 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Yep, Coast Guard inspection delayed debarkation and therefore embarkation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20pluscruises Posted June 2, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Yep, Coast Guard inspection delayed debarkation and therefore embarkation Thanks! Is it usually this long of a delay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisingChick Posted June 2, 2014 #5 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Thanks! Is it usually this long of a delay? We were off Summit at 8:20 am today. No delay for us. They were scheduled to leave at 4 pm. Seems strange for them to still be there. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countingbackwards Posted June 2, 2014 #6 Share Posted June 2, 2014 We were off the Summit on time today, and were in one of the last groups to get off, so I don't think that debarkation timing was a problem . I suspect it has something to do with either the Coast Guard inspection, or the few loud noises we heard on board yesterday evening and this morning (there were some rough seas coming home)...

bjinouno Posted June 2, 2014 #8 Share Posted June 2, 2014 After plowing through those winds and rough seas for over 24 hours, I think the ship needed a rest! and so did the crew, We were off the ship in the time frame given! They ended up having a beautiful sail away and a longer one at that! We had a great cruise and a bunch of wonderful passengers too... Staff was great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebeccalouiseagain Posted June 2, 2014 #10 Share Posted June 2, 2014 It sounds like there must have been some type of mechanical problem. Ships wait for no one. I doubt it was due to passengers getting on late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannysmom Posted June 2, 2014 #11 Share Posted June 2, 2014 According to the marinetraffic.com map on the portnywebcam site, the Summit has just about caught up with the Breakaway as of 10:45pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebeccalouiseagain Posted June 2, 2014 #12 Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Doesn't "Breakaway" conjure up falling apart? I like NCL but that name was a bad choice. Wouldn't Freebird or Carefree sound better. Edited June 2, 2014 by rebeccalouiseagain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannysmom Posted June 2, 2014 #13 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I thought that same thing as I was typing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osborne66 Posted June 2, 2014 #14 Share Posted June 2, 2014 According to the Port Of New York - Summit left at 6:22pm from Bayonne but doesn't say why it was over 2 hours late leaving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cle-guy Posted June 2, 2014 #15 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The other thread a poster here posted indicates the Cosat guard inspection scheduled for our sailing last week didn't happen so happened yesterday. This explains why there were no delayed boarding last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
