IRL_Joanie Posted February 11, 2013 #176 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Westerdam just announced that they might be ready to sail at 2100 and that their gyro is/was out of order. The Gyro was not our Queen:) It was a Cargo Ship by the name of Vega Beta. Just double checked and Vega Beta is supposed to leave port at 2130, but the Harbor Master told them to go through their agent. Westerdam is now showing her time pushed back to 2230 (10:30 pm) Last Bridge to Shore Personel conversation was someone will be arriving by 10 pm. I took that to be the flight arrives a little before 10 so......... Joanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRL_Joanie Posted February 11, 2013 #178 Share Posted February 11, 2013 OK, conversation between Bridge and Shore Ops was a bit confusing but this is what I just heard as an update on the 8 missing/outstanding passengers.... 4 are in a cab on their way to the port now. 2 are due to arrive on "the 9:10" flight and the other 2 are unknown at this time......... So there ya gots the latest on "The Queen." Candy we were posting at the same time:) Joanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candy Posted February 11, 2013 #179 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Yes, but you're paying better attention... I have the HarborMaster in one ear and Columbo in the other! Multitasking gets two jobs only half done :D Candy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRL_Joanie Posted February 11, 2013 #182 Share Posted February 11, 2013 .......Multitasking:) Got the speakers turned up next to my ears, TV turned to Once Upon a Time, Watching the Unloading of SS El Morrow and playing a computer game in between:) I am wondering if these are not just passengers, but also one or more of the AWESOME Irishmen/women who are scheduled to perform on this charter....

IRL_Joanie Posted February 11, 2013 #185 Share Posted February 11, 2013 .......no word about them so it sounded to me as if as soon as the rest of the passengers (6) are on board they are pulling the jet way and taking the lines down to 2 and 1......... At least that is what I thought they said..... EDITED TO ADD: Bridge just asked how much time they had to notify the Harbor for requesting a pilot. Answer was 1 hour....... EDITED MORE: Notice given to Shore Ops to request Harbor Master for Pilot in 1 hour!!!!! Which would be the 10:30 showing on the scedule for the last coup[le of hours.

IRL_Joanie Posted February 11, 2013 #195 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Pulling the deck 2 gangway... I sure hope that the Westerdam does Toot, but I think like most other cities, there is a Noise Ordnance that goes from 10 pm to 6 am.... I am watching fopr the lights on the front of the ship to go dark. I think it was Roy who said they are turned off 30 ,inutes before a ship departs the pier..

lka1012 Posted February 11, 2013 #196 Share Posted February 11, 2013 While I will miss the new captain showing us his stuff, if I lived near the port and was awakened by tooting, I would not be happy. (No matter how much I might enjoy tooting during day hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking it's more like 15 minutes, but probably whatever the Captain thinks his crew needs to adjust to the darkness. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
