Capt_BJ Posted February 16, 2019 #377 Share Posted February 16, 2019 in the channel and IMO going about 2 kts slower than most do this transit (6 vs 8 knots) aka .... walking very carefully ..... wind in 10 mph ... not a significant factor and far from the speed where tugs get required by COTP.

GregD Posted February 16, 2019 #382 Share Posted February 16, 2019 That's the only damage. Two scratches. Also looks like prop wash only on the starboard side. Tough to confirm though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted February 16, 2019 #383 Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) looking at stern and I see prop wash on stbd side only suggesting port side is not operating tug made up in 'full assist' mode ... not just standing by or ready for a lil nudge .... one at stern is applying the brakes.

johare Posted February 16, 2019 #384 Share Posted February 16, 2019 If you have a Roku, looks great on the PTZ TV channel...and is about 2 minutes ahead of what is being shown on the webcam site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted February 16, 2019 #388 Share Posted February 16, 2019 tugboat right up to Epic's AFT starboard side and 2nd tugboat being "tethered" behind the AFT via rope/cable ... seeing just prop wave, starboard side - like others. From various social media photos & videos that I saw, not seeing any scratches or damages. OK, those 2 were deep scratches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt_BJ Posted February 16, 2019 #390 Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) web cam on a browser can fall behind ... refresh the page and it catches up .... concur CG would not let sail without some repair to a hole. as I mentioned the inspector's office was a short walk away!

Capt_BJ Posted February 16, 2019 #395 Share Posted February 16, 2019 don't count on the webcam staying on EPIC .... right now it is "manned" ... not that way most of the time so it will just point down channel ..... they might leave it on E but I doubt it. It is manned now cuz sailaways will be staring in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted February 16, 2019 #399 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Dock workers pulling up & tightening the AFT ropes, portside from the Epic and tying up - engine stops. Tugs now moving away & leaving, mission accomplished for them. R E L I E F - for getting passengers, crew & ship home safely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
