Yeah, they are in trail and sounds like Harmony wanted to know what Conquest's route planning is going to be. Good comms prevents a potential nasty situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How dare a little ship like Conquest drive in their lane! Yep! They're all monitoring the same channel (#16) but when they want to talk to each other, they go to a different channel, like #10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Vict0riann Posted February 10, 2019 #167 Share Posted February 10, 2019 On NS, Alberta Quilter and her roll call will be having a wave.

O'Driscoll does not have any hands on on a Pinnacle, Signature and/or Vista, Very possible Capt. de Boer stayed onboard until today to make that happen. Those captains do a lot of simulator training also in between contracts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
