crazycruzer68 Posted April 12, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Doesn't look good for them. It's going to be a long 4 days till they get land again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted April 13, 2016 #5 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Not necessary bad for next 4 days - that weather system is moving west to east, with the GEM heading south - probably a bit choppy overnight depending on the course heading ...especially if the ship can sail further out into the Atlantic & get ahead of the storm system According to forecast data shown on oceanweather dot com - seas are relatively in the Atlantic, ships like the GEM are built to easily handle 10' to 15' sea conditions. We sailed right into an oncoming Nor'easter with the GEM going nearly 25 knots for 12 plus hours - directly into & then out of the eye of the storm's raging path. Clouds could hamper satellite signals so broadband connectivity could be affected at sea - SMS or texting generally work better for these relays. ;) Think positive & safe voyage for all those onboard, and, hopefully - no medical emergencies requiring the need to medevac as they could be out of range of USCG hilo's - even with aerial in-flight refueling.
