jarz85 Posted June 23, 2010 #101 Share Posted June 23, 2010 She's going back to Southhampton tomorrow so she'll be going the opposite way but I'm not sure when all that's going to be happening. :cool: Back over 10kts now :) And going by marinetraffic she should be coming back to S'ton at 5:00am UK time which is about 130pm my time so Ill still be working bleh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikki21 Posted June 23, 2010 #102 Share Posted June 23, 2010 The Southampton webcam is rubbish. I am on the Cowes webcam now but not sure if I will see her from there. The best webcam which updates every 10 secs is the one at Ryde on the Isle of Wight. Happy webcamming! :) Yes I am also a NESS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted June 23, 2010 #103 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Back over 10kts now :) And going by marinetraffic she should be coming back to S'ton at 5:00am UK time which is about 130pm my time so Ill still be working bleh 11.5 knots now... must have just been other ship traffic in the area to slow her down a bit. I want to see her doing over 14 knots!!! :D I'll be sleeping at 5AM UK time! LOL :eek: I have class tomorrow so I must sleep or else risk getting the dreaded finger pointed at me to answer a bazillion questions... he who risks sleeping or texting during class risks the class dunce cap for the day with these instructors!!! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikki21 Posted June 23, 2010 #106 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I hope some of you were on the Cowes webcam as got a good shot of her in view, she's not taking the route I thought she was, she appears to be heading down to Christchurch, or maybe she's going to go round the Isle of Wight. One of my friends is down there so she might get to see her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarz85 Posted June 23, 2010 #107 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Im not sure but it looks like she is turning back towards Ryde?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikki21 Posted June 23, 2010 #108 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Good shot, I was watching that one, she's turned now and is heading towards the Ryde webcam! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted June 23, 2010 #109 Share Posted June 23, 2010 She's got an interesting path going on... a cruise to nowhere can surely do that to a ship! :D Still not going too fast either! She needs to get out to the open water and break it loose to test that shaft! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted June 23, 2010 #110 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Wooohooo!!! 15.8 knots!!!! :d:d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikki21 Posted June 23, 2010 #111 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Does 14.6 knots mean she is ok?! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMaterial Posted June 23, 2010 #112 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Does 14.6 knots mean she is ok?! :rolleyes: She was doing 13.4 max speed all day yesterday so I am assuming that anything over 14 would mean they are using both screws equally. Max speed on the one screw would be 14 which is half the ship's max speed. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikki21 Posted June 23, 2010 #113 Share Posted June 23, 2010 or even 15.8 knots now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarz85 Posted June 23, 2010 #114 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Just hit 16.2kts I think that is more than she managed from Rotterdam? Would love to see her get over 20. Also its getting late here and I have to go to bed but I want to see her pass Ryde first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikki21 Posted June 23, 2010 #115 Share Posted June 23, 2010 You won't have too long to wait, she should be due shortly as Ryde, the speed she is going at! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also its getting late here and I have to go to bed but I want to see her pass Ryde first! You can't go to bed! :p This is exciting so they must be testing out her screw to see if it's working properly and that the fix is holding! I've got my fingers and toes crossed that it does... well I have to type so maybe not the fingers but definitely the toes... no cramps yet! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
