Roy Roy, I hope the Port Everglades Port Schedule is right. All I can report is what the port schedule states. Prisendam has always sailed late on her last few visits so we will have to wait and keep an eye on the Port Schedule or Harbor Master communications.

This will be the last time the NA sails to the Western Caribbean this season as she goes into dry dock after disembarking passengers on the 29th and then off to Europe.

Boytjie Posted March 12, 2015 #7 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Interesting ship docked in front of the Prinsendam. Yacht Express transports multiple yachts and ships. There is an interesting video explaining the process here: http://www.yacht-transport.com/how-does-it-work.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ger_77 Posted March 12, 2015 #8 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Good morning everyone. She sure looks pretty sitting in port this morning. Hopefully we'll find out what time sail-away will actually take place! Smooth Sailing ! :) :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an interesting video explaining the process here: http://www.yacht-transport.com/how-does-it-work.html Must be new deliveries or sold yachts on their way to new owners. Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show is not until Nov. and that is when we see a lot of yacht transports.

Boytjie Posted March 12, 2015 #10 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) I saw a boat unloaded from the transporter and now it seems one is going to be loaded. Or maybe not.... a boat approached the Yacht Express and turned around as if to go onboard but now it is just drifting a short distance away.

Boytjie Posted March 12, 2015 #11 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Oh, after unloading one boat, the one I thought was going in did in fact get loaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vict0riann Posted March 12, 2015 #12 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Good morning! I hope to be here, but would prefer a slightly later departure than 4, please. Around 5 would suit me best!:) Of course, 11 is okay, she looks pretty all lit up, and it'll only be 8 here.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhannah Posted March 12, 2015 #13 Share Posted March 12, 2015 She is going across the Atlantic (almost all the way) for her next port. Sailing late night wouldn't be out of the question. She looks lovely sitting there. Sailed her twice, and would love to be on her again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vict0riann Posted March 12, 2015 #14 Share Posted March 12, 2015 How do you guys do those tiny little thumbnails? I still haven't figured out how to make my images smaller in Photobucket!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boytjie Posted March 12, 2015 #15 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) How do you guys do those tiny little thumbnails? I still haven't figured out how to make my images smaller in Photobucket!:D I just used CC Attachment function: click on the paperclip icon above the text box, upload the picture and close the window. Then click on the paper clip icon again to actually attach the picture to the post. It does not give you a nice big picture but it is a quick way to attach a picture you have on your hard drive.

Rare Vict0riann Posted March 12, 2015 #16 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Wow! Do you get the photo from Photobucket or another site, or just from your own photo storage or desktop? I will have to start playing around with that. Kazu has said she would show me how to do it with Tapatalk, but that would be on my ipad..... (I'm pretty dumb!)

Boytjie Posted March 12, 2015 #17 Share Posted March 12, 2015 It looks like the Yacht Express is being raised again (ballast tanks being emptied) as the writing on the ship's side is becoming more visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted March 12, 2015 #18 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Well, if she IS going at 4 pm, you can bet I will be here. She leaves late so often <sigh> We went in daylight last time we crossed. Fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Scrapnana Posted March 12, 2015 #20 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I should be here for sail-away regardless of the time. She does look nice sitting there (and it looks nice in FLL, too). I seem to remember one other time she was scheduled to leave at 2300 but actually sailed a few hours earlier (that might have been the Amsterdam, however ).

The picture I attached was a screenshot I saved on my computer's hard drive and then I attached it by uploading it. For pictures from another website (like Photobucket) you could just include it by clicking on the yellow "mountain picture" icon and provide the web link/ URL for the picture.

togacath Posted March 12, 2015 #25 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hi All, my mom is sailing on her and the documents say 11pm departure. It definitely can't be 4pm. She opted for the HA air program and doesn't even arrive at the FLL airport until 5pm tonight. They do two stops before the transatlantic crossing: St. Thomas and somewhere else (sorry, don't have the itinerary in front of me right now). And, yes, just for the record, I am extremely jealous that I'm not sailing with her! Hubby and I are on the Noordam on April 20th and it seems so far away!
