aliaschief Posted November 20, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 20, 2014 A rare visit by the Prisendam. She and two other cruise ships all scheduled for a 4 PM departure. I would recommend this sail-away for tooting purist. http://ftlauderdalewebcam.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted November 20, 2014 #2 Share Posted November 20, 2014 ha! ha! Not a tooting purist, but always a pleasure to see the Prinsendam. Can't miss her:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lka1012 Posted November 20, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I hope to be here for the Toots. And I hope one day to sail on the Pris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BumperII Posted November 20, 2014 #4 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Checking in for the Prinsendam. I have never seen this ship in motion before, she is one of seven HAL ships we have not had the pleasure of meeting. Yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted November 20, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hope she leaves on time. I have to pick up friends at the airport at 5:15 so I can just watch the sail-away at 4:00 (if it happens then). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtl513 Posted November 20, 2014 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) Hope she leaves on time. I have to pick up friends at the airport at 5:15 so I can just watch the sail-away at 4:00 (if it happens then). Since she's starting a 28 day Amazon cruise, I would be very surprised if she leaves on time. It usually takes longer to get her loaded for long trips than it does for 7 day loops. Or maybe they're just often in no hurry to get going with 2 sea days before the first port. :) Edited November 20, 2014 by jtl513 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Scrapnana Posted November 20, 2014 #8 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Since she's starting a 28 day Amazon cruise, I would be very surprised if she leaves on time. That's what I was thinking. There have also been quite a few late departures so far this season. I will be pleasantly surprised if I get to see her leave.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be pleasantly surprised if I get to see her leave.:) Seems there are about as many reasons as there are cruise ships in PE for late sailings. On our 31 day cruise on Prinsendam out of PE in May of 2013, we sailed pretty much on time. We were the only ship in port that day though, which may well account for that.

the2ofus Posted November 20, 2014 #10 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Have sailed on the Prinsendam in the Med. and transatlantic. Love that ship. Have never seen her at a sail-away so I will be watching today. Hope she sails on time as I have a meeting this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to pick up friends at the airport at 5:15 so I can just watch the sail-away at 4:00 (if it happens then). Last year when we left on the Prinsendam for the Amazon cruise we didn't leave port until almost 9:00PM. We were scheduled for I believe it was 5:ooPM not 4:00PM at that time. We had a great cruise, late leaving didn't diminish our cruise at all. Love the Elegant Explorer". Helen:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissShelllly Posted November 20, 2014 #13 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Boarding today started at 12.30 pm. There are rumours of an inspection having occurred, although I can't confirm that through a Google search. The mandatory safety drill is at 3.30 pm. Like others. I'm hoping we leave on time.

PathfinderEss Posted November 20, 2014 #18 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) Hi Chief, just checking in to make sure that the Prinsendam toots don't cause her to run a ground taking out the Condo's and all inhabitants.
