vgordon Posted January 10, 2006 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I have really enjoyed all of the threads for first timers. My husband and I will be celebrating our 23rd anniversary aboard the Sun sailing February 4th. I am particularly grateful for the packing tips but one of them puzzles me. I have read several tips that advising packing duck tape. What uses will there be in the cabin for duck tape? VGordon Big Spring, TX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryAnn261 Posted January 10, 2006 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'm not sure about the duct tape... but we are sailing the same cruise. Join our roll call in the roll call section. Glad to have you sailing w/ us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Haynes Posted January 10, 2006 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Duct tape is useful in rocky seas, to keep any door, whether closet or balcony, open or closed. These doors have a habit of slamming shut in rocky seas and vice a versa. I'm sure there are other uses for duct tape, but I know I have pegged the main one.

sunshine 229 Posted January 10, 2006 #4 Share Posted January 10, 2006 It is also useful to have to repair luggage that gets broken or torn in transit or, if you are a shopper to hold together a number of packages so they can be carried in one hand. For a couple of other uses. There was once a whole site deducated to the different uses for duct tape. Think I found it! http://www.exploremaine.com/~joeho/tape.htm edited to add link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaldosPepper Posted January 11, 2006 #9 Share Posted January 11, 2006 How do I find the roll call section? VGordon In the lower right, on any page that lists threads, see the box that says "Forum Jump". Click the arrow and scroll down till you see "Roll Calls, Norwegian Cruise Lines" They'll be listed by ship, and then individually within each ship's subcategory! Enjoy! :D I'm with you on skipping the duct-tape-waxing! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuizer2 Posted January 11, 2006 #10 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Duct tape is the universal repairer. If the luggage has a hole in it, duct tape it. Need to wrap something up, duct tape it. Zipper busted, duct tape it. Wing on the airplane starting to come loose, duct tape it. Hole in side of ship, duct tape it. Too much noise coming from someone's mouth, duct tape it.

If it is real rocky you can use it to tape yourself in bed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
