Capt. George is on vacation, or will be on vacation shortly. What is the name of the Captain on the ship? Have a great cruise.

Are the seas rough?

[cruisestitch]

Not so far but might worsen through the night between Bahamas and Fort Lauderdale

Alternate port is Cozumel l I can also see Key West being cancelled as well

Yes.

 

We just returned to Port Everglades this morning from 10N Southern Caribbean on Silhouette and the wind out of the east (against our aft heading into port) was wicked.  Two pretty big tugs tied up bow and aft to assist with turn in Lake Mabel and docking.

 

It's been like this for 2-days here per our Condo front desk (1-mile up from port on beach).  All of our outdoor pool chairs, tables, umbrellas not just tied down but removed and placed inside.

 

It's going to be an interest ride out of Port Everglades and until the captain can use the Bahama to shield some of the brunt of the wind.

 

Good luck.

[At Sea At Peace]

Tough call.

 

[At Sea At Peace]

Well, you all are looking like you're getting ready to go.  Lines being retracted.

 

Good luck.  

 

[At Sea At Peace]

Yep.

Yep.  Will watch you come out of the port.  Straight into headwinds the ship should be fine.  I don't know how much fun it will be when not heading into the wind.  It's a good ship.

Was watching Pilot No. 5 get tossed around leading a freighter out a few minutes ago and could almost feel the "motion of the ocean" 🤪

the tugs helping a big ship is like ants helping an  elephant
