Ecstacy and Ida

[lafayettedvm]

it appears that the Ecstasy has not moved much in the past several hours. is it dead in the water? Ida looks to be closing in on her. Anyone have any news?

Just because a ship doesn't look like it's moving on some of the tracking tools, doesn't mean it isn't, they need to actually report from the ship for the tools to pick up their course. Sometimes the info is out of date.

at noon today, ecstacy and fantasy were just about side by side where ecstacy is still located.

Looks like several other ships lots closer to Ida than the Ecstasy, but they are reporting 25 foot swells so may need to slow down. We were on the Splendor 3 weeks ago with Hurricane Rick and one day, the captain slowed way down to give us a better ride in the rough seas.

looks like the report is 6-8 hours old. good job cathy.

I was wondering if that was it. I have seen before it not being too accurate, due to reporting and updating times.

Just heard on the Weather Channel a couple of minutes ago that they were getting some video and reports from the Legend and they are having a very, very rough cruise. :eek:
