I love Captain Jonathan's blog which gives a unique behind the scenes view of the work of a cruise captain. This was to be his last cruise before his well earned retirement. As he says, one he will never forget. You can easily do this yourself through cruisemapper.com. Simply select the relevant cruiseline and it will show all of their ships worldwide. You can then zoom in to individual ones and click on their tag for more details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is probably above my pay grade. However, I'll add it to my "Things to Learn List" to save bothering David, whilst I'm in self isolation.

Kiwi Kruzer Posted March 24, 2020 #82 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Yes . Using the cruise mapper is the best way of tracking the cruise of Amsterdam . Although they have a bridge cam which they broadcast through the ships TV system they do not put it up on the net . Likewise the ports do not have cams that would show the ship .

Docker123 Posted March 24, 2020 #83 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Viking Orion has just moved from the anchorage and is moored at Station Pier. Uncertain for how long, nothing currently showing in the Vicports system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I found that cruisemapper also shows those that come up on marinetraffic as "out of range" - unless you have a paid marinetraffic subscription, which I don't. (Found that handy as I was following Norwegian Jewel on her way to Honolulu). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docker123 Posted March 24, 2020 #86 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Exploring the oceans with Marie traffic, this freight ship brought a wry smile to me. Somewhat east of Newcastle. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docker123 Posted March 25, 2020 #88 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Somewhat interesting, but very slow, watching movements of the boats on marinetraffic or real life. A couple of days back watched Viking Orion weigh anchor and head into Station Pier. Last evening it returned to the anchorage. Vicports now has it listed there until 30/4. QE did a longish trip eastwards, but still showing awaiting command. Now returned to Gladstone. I guess it went to very deep water to discharge waste. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just saw a ship heading outbound across the Bay. Is it the Sea Princess or the Pacific Dawn? PS I had a look at the bridge cams. The Sea Princess just shows water - she is at sea. The Pacific Dawn is definitely in the Bay. PPS. Forget my post about the bridge cams. It looks like they are not being refreshed. I don't know where the ships are.

Rare MicCanberra Posted March 28, 2020 #98 Share Posted March 28, 2020 The MS Statendam became the Pacific Eden in 2015 and then the Vasco De Gama last year. The Star Princess became the Arcadia in 1997 and then became the Ocean Village in 2003 and then became the Pacific Pearl in 2010 and then the Columbus in 2017.

Rare MicCanberra Posted March 28, 2020 #99 Share Posted March 28, 2020 The Regal Princess became the Pacific Dawn in 2007 and will become the Amy Johnson next year. The Ryndam became the Pacific Aria in 2015 and will be the Ida Pfeiffer next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
