boat weather

[Prince of Darkness]

im crusing for the first time this september for four days through the Caribbean to key west and cozumel. i imagine ill typically be up late so i was wondering what the weather feels like at night on the boat. will it still be comfortable with shorts and a shirt or does it get chilly?

 

thanks in advance for any responses

It should be warm thru the evening and night

It will still be warm outside, but breezy if the ship is moving. You can still get away with shorts.

Yes, shorts will still be fine. I get cold easily so I often bring a jacket, but we cruise in January. There's almost always an ocean breeze when the ship is moving but it is entirely dependent on the weather how chilly it would be. I would think that in September it would still be pretty warm in the Caribbean and wouldn't be too chilly at night.

That time of year, it won't be chilly. It is windy on deck, tho...but not a cold wind, by any means!

The only time you'll need some sort of wrap is ON THE SHIP! Often, the a/c in public areas is cold enough to "hang meat"! :D

Please remember it is a ship to a boat.

 

But weather outside will be warm.

Most of our Northern visitors wear shorts and tshirts all year long down here.....lol... I also have noticed the a/c on the ships sometime can be a little nippy. But, I don't ever remember wearing anything heavier than a long sleeve shirt once in a great while.

The weather any time of day (or night) will be fine. Unless it's not.

[Keith1010]

As others have said daytime and nighttime temperatures don't change much and it will be warm.

 

However, inside the ship it might feel comfortable, warm or cool depending on each persons view of it. We are come in different sizes and shapes so just wanted to mention that as often there is a lot to do inside the ship at night where you might find you are spending more of your time than outside.

I'm thinking if you are in "the boat" you might get a little more chilled than on the ship :D. The way those little things bob around so close to the water might catch some spray LOL. Sorry, couldn't resist.

ahoy shipmate, the temp on the boats will be roughly the same as it is on the ship. Welcome to the life at sea and it's nautical slang.

Enjoy your cruise.

It is really personal DW always says its cold on board.

 

Inside the air con outside the breeze caused by the ships movement and sea air.

 

But hen she is always cold anywhere.

Outside in the evening will be warm.

But there can be places inside the ship that may be cold. I always pack a shawl -- just in case.

Sorry -- computer is acting up and I ended up with a double post.

My wife also will get cold on the ship and needs something.
