[Krazy Kruizers]

3 Toots from Conquest

[erewhon]

3 standard toots.

[Vict0riann]

I seem to be having audio problems. No toots!:loudcry:

[Krazy Kruizers]

Sounded like Nieuw Amsterdam having their life boat drill.

A good friend recently returned from the Koningsdam where he was told by an officer that the K'dam uses less fuel than the Veendam. Hard to believe. Could it be per guest, in which case, I would understand as it holds twice as many. Can any of our sailaway friends (Copper do you hear me?) comment?

[erewhon]

Celebrity about to get underway.

Sorry St. Pete, you need an engineer like ChengPK to answer that one. I can tell you that, unlike Veendam, K-dam uses azipod technology

[Cruizer Bill]

Looks great, thanks.

Departure toot from someone, it may have been the Summit.

[erewhon]

Departure toot.

[travelnap]

Summit is underway.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Celebrity Summit on the move.

[Krazy Kruizers]

She is turning towards the channel.

[Vict0riann]

Had the same issue until I rebooted

 

Yes, I seem to have to refresh every few minutes today - in the past it seemed to take 15 or 20 minutes before everything froze!

Pop Quiz; besides Queen Maxima (2x Nieuw Amsterdam & Koningsdam) and former Queen Beatrix (2x Eurodam & Statendam IV), there is one additional member of the Dutch Royal Family who has been the godmother of a HAL ship not twice, but three times. Who is it?

[erewhon]

Someone has an engine room fire.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Engine Room fire on a small boat somewhere??

[Copper10-8]

Engine room fire on a cabin cruiser on the PE cam

[Krazy Kruizers]

She is in the channel.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Wishing all the Celebrity Summit passengers a great cruise.

[Boytjie]

Koningin Juliana?

[travelnap]

Raspy toots from Celebrity.

[Krazy Kruizers]

toots from Summit -- strange sound
