I agree -- I can click on restart very easily.

Still being pushed back by the tugs, must be a strong wind.

 

Winds currently 17 mph gusting 26 mph from the Northeast...

[Happily@Sea]

Tug is now pushing from side - instead of front. Tug is done - just released her.

[Krazy Kruizers]

You can see that the winds are really up.

[ger_77]

There are not a lot of people on deck today!

Checking in from a cold NorthWest Fl. Woke up to 30 degrees. Might have to move to Southern, FL.:)

PTZtv had a Black Friday sale. One month free and $10/month for a year. Can't resist a sale so I tried it. So spoiled now I am not sure I can go back.:D

[Happily@Sea]

She's really moving and no TOOTS!!

[Scrapnana]

No toots???

[Krazy Kruizers]

Not too many people out on the decks.

That's funny... It was 29 when I got up this morning and I told the cashier at the grocery that I was ready to move back to Florida...

[erewhon]

Didn't hear any horn.

[ger_77]

Pretty quiet sail-away . . .

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

[Krazy Kruizers]

Wishing all the Eurodam passengers a great cruise.

No horn tooting on the way out? Only three weeks today & that well be us waving good-bye to family & friends. Bon Voyage, fair winds & smooth seas.

Certainly a challenging sailaway for the Eurodam's Master due to the wind. I don't think I have seen before the need for a tug working at the ships's Starboard bow to keep her in the proper position.

Me, too. Actually, I think it is better than it was a few years ago, then it would freeze quite often and you never knew when it would be, but usually when something interesting was going to happen. The only difference now, I think, is that the sound goes off too, when you re-start.

 

Did I miss the toots, or is she leaving silently?

Sadly no toots from the Eurodam.

 

Maybe tomorrows ships will do better.

Kia Ora. Not that warm here today either for Noordam visit.

[Krazy Kruizers]

See you all at tomorrow's sail away.

Perhaps the Bridge Officers were too busy/concerned in dealing with the wind issues to remember to whistle.

[Happily@Sea]

Well, back to Key West on one of my screens and PEV on the plus sound one.

Have you checked out Juneau today? Another beautiful sunny day.

[travelnap]

What time does the Oosterdam sail from Key West?

[travelnap]

Looks like the Conquest is underway.
