MS Nieuw Statendam Sailaway TODAY, March 21, 2021 at 1700

[rafinmd]

MS Nieuw Statendam is scheduled (always subject to change) to sail today at 1700, EDT.  While the sound is still dead, I expect to see great coverage of the departure and crew waving from the deck.

 

The ship is currently on the Fort Lauderdale webcam at:

As she leaves the port the coverage will shift to the Port Everglades webcam:

Also in port but scheduled to stay overnight is Seabourn Odyssey.

Awesome.

So where is she moving to?

Anyone knows her planned schedule for the next few months?

We're booked to be sailing on her Aug 1 out of Amsterdam...

Thanks,

[Vict0riann]

She's still in layup mode so going back to sea towards the Bahamas and lingering/loitering there until she receives concrete orders to start getting ready to accept passengers and a full crew complement

 

Btw Roy, the audio for the 17th Street bridge (opening and closing for marine traffic) is coming through loud and clear

Gotta watch out for those "orange things" They're apparently a "pain in someone's derrière

Yes, that would be the VHF , but we're missing the mike on the condo that captures the toots.

A beautiful day for a sailaway!

I’m guessing it’s been a pretty rough year for PTZtv? Staying optimistic for our 42 days on Rotterdam this fall.

 

If it gets cancelled we may have to cruise down the Mississippi!

[leerathje]

We have 11 days on the Rotterdam booked for December 1.....keeping our fingers crossed!

Don't see how she'll depart at 1700 with no smoke from the funnels right now.  JMO.

[leerathje]

I believe her last departure a couple of weeks ago was delayed by over an hour.

[aliaschief]

Agree. Captain may be at Wal Mart shopping!😎

[NextOne]

Hmm, if that's the case, I might just have to go get a glass of wine while I wait.....

[JazzyV]

Watching and waiting.

[Essiesmom]

The delivery of toilet paper and rice may be delayed...  EM

So what happened to that mic? Did they take it down permanently?
