cpiers Posted January 30, 2015 #2 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Breakaway should have left at 3:00 and the Gem at 4:00. Both are still at their piers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meatball_nyc Posted January 30, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) I've been watching, too. Checked their roll call and nothing. I did read that she was late this morning getting into port due to a medical emergency, but nothing was confirmed. Seeing funnel smoke for the past 15 minutes. Hope all is well. EDIT: Gem was scheduled to sail at 4:00. Breakaway at 6:00 on a CTN. ~Robin Every Day at Sea is a Great Day Edited January 30, 2015 by meatball_nyc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbycruiser Posted January 30, 2015 #9 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Yea, she is backing out now. I hope I get an earlier departure in 19 days when I sail on her! Although leaving the harbor at night would be very photogenic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckirj1 Posted January 30, 2015 #10 Share Posted January 30, 2015 A night time sailaway from NY must be so beautiful, with the city and Statue of Liberty all lit up. I can never wake up early enough to see it on the way back, and it's always been daytime when I've sailed out of NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbycruiser Posted January 30, 2015 #11 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Nice night for sailaway but pretty windy and cold!Bon Voyage :D ~Robin Every Day at Sea is a Great Day Yea, I'm about 35 minutes from Manhattan and its windy and 27 degrees here.

meatball_nyc Posted January 30, 2015 #12 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Haha yes! I think I would need a few strong ones to be up top tonight. At least they are headed to warmer places....lucky lucky people :) Cheers! ~Robin Every Day at Sea is a Great Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisePrincess575 Posted January 31, 2015 #14 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Ship got in late today so they just shoved off a bit later. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Johnny Posted January 31, 2015 Author #15 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Good to know there were no serious problems and that they just needed more turn around time. Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrislynn55 Posted January 31, 2015 #16 Share Posted January 31, 2015 We're just off the Gem this morning. We diverted off course yesterday afternoon to allow a medivac to take place via coast guard helicopter....we saw the helicopter circling the ship for at least fifteen minutes from our deck ten balcony. The wind was wicked and I can't imagine how anyone was airlifted from the ship! Because of the emergency yesterday we were delayed an hour reaching port this morning....walk-off disembarkation didn't even begin until 9 AM....I imagine everything got behind by our later than usual arrival, which probably accounts for the late departure this afternoon. We had a fantastic cruise....wish I was still there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
