[Happily@Sea]

Ugly doesn't look like she's moved yet. And it always takes her so long. 😞

[Vict0riann]

Scrapnana said she was scheduled to go first - at 3:30.  Wonder what happened...

 

Now she is "Edge"ing out.

Edging out now.

[Cruisercl]

OMG I did not hear any toots...I am having connection problems today.

Glad she kept her high standards of great toots on sail away!!!

[travelnap]

Let's time Ugly and see how long she takes to get out of the road today.

[Happily@Sea]

There is NS appearing.

[travelnap]

NS is starting to drop lines.

[Happily@Sea]

Has anyone else lost the PE screen?

[Happily@Sea]

I had to go back and reload the whole page - not just refresh, but I do have PE again.

[Vict0riann]

I have all three now, but I did have to reload once.  ( I lost the SE cam.)

Missed the transfers but I think it is great the Princess/HAL group is using a non passenger sailing ship as a medical ship. Many of you know that on the West Coast, the Crown Princess is being used and HAL has transferred some crew to it (I think Konigsadm crew).

[travelnap]

Looks like Nieuw Statendam is dropping all lines so she should be right behind the Edge.

[VMax1700]

The PE screen has been suffering from the 'spinning wheel of nothingness' same as the HAL site.

[Happily@Sea]

NS is moving.

[rafinmd]

Edge always has to back out.  I wonder if that magic carpet thingie is the only way to get people on and off the ship or is there a way they can board on the other side even if awkward.

Now its the FL cam that is hanging

[travelnap]

NS is underway.

[leerathje]

DH and I are driving home from Victoria... still about 25 minutes away. Maybe the Big Ugly will be out of the channel by the time I get home! 😁😁 She's always so SSSLLLOOOWWWW....

[rafinmd]

Ugly and slow but at least she can toot.

Bummer. I missed the Noordam's interesting call on the port.

 

[travelnap]

Low rumbling toots from Edge.

[Vict0riann]

She is going at a pretty good clip in the channel.  And NS is moving.   Some rumbly tooting going on.

I imagine that is going to happen on a regular basis from now on...   (not your missing it 😀, but the crew transfers..)

[travelnap]

Edge is giving her tooter a workout today and she wasn't as slow as usual moving out today.  Maybe they are getting the swing of this thing.

[VMax1700]

Wow that was a lot of toots from Edge.

Hard act to follow for NSD
