2calgarycruisers Posted November 15, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Been stuck at the hertz rental centre since ten thirty. Rumours of a fire on a cardinal ship and explorer coming late into port??? People are getting ready to riot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramja96 Posted November 15, 2014 #2 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Not sure if Ex was late. Was scheduled to arrive at 7:30 and when I checked the webcam at 7:45 this morning she was already docked.

danv3 Posted November 15, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Four ships in port today could be part of the issue. Explorer seems to have arrived at 6:37 this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted November 15, 2014 #4 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Last message we got from Carol, who was on board EX, was over 3 hours ago and she said no one had gotten off yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deliver42 Posted November 15, 2014 #6 Share Posted November 15, 2014 If no one has gotten off the ship yet, blame customs. They are the ones to release the ship. Not RCCL. They want the people off asap to get the ship ready for the next cruise, which is later in the PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danv3 Posted November 15, 2014 #11 Share Posted November 15, 2014 That seems fairly minor...not sure why the cruise terminals would be affected (at least once the fire trucks were able to get to the scene). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare orville99 Posted November 15, 2014 #12 Share Posted November 15, 2014 From the florida today webcam view, it appears that passengers are entering the terminal. I wonder if the broken lifeboat davit gave the coast guard cause to do an inspection before anyone was allowed to board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillB48 Posted November 15, 2014 #13 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I shot this pic around 10 this morning... perhaps getting the damaged life boat ashore before they could bring the gangway to the ship. The life boat can be seen in the lower left. Not that it means anything, I did not see any fire activity while I was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramja96 Posted November 15, 2014 #18 Share Posted November 15, 2014 why is it still in port? 5:49 pm? They're saying passengers are on board and staterooms are ready ... Does it matter?

flpab Posted November 15, 2014 #22 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I have a feeling the Coasties made them fix everything before they could head out from the rogue wave. The glass doors, the life raft, might have been more problems that needed to be fixed in port from it. It was fun seeing it all lit up. Think I saw the QE2 go out at night.

Merion_Mom Posted November 16, 2014 #24 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Lifeboat: In port this morning (10-ish to 11-ish), they used a crane and removed lifeboat #20 (mine ;) ) and I saw a truck bringing in a new lifeboat. I took pictures and will post them on "my" thread soon. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
