ShakyBeef Posted September 5, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 5, 2022 While I've been sitting around the house, browsing Cruisecritic today, my DH has been out Marlin fishing in the Atlantic, off Ocean City, MD. He just got home and was showing me fish pictures (yawn), when he pulled these ship pics up and told me the boat captain says "I see that d**n ship every Sunday". DH is pretty certain the ship was headed south (out of New York or Bayonne, maybe) and they were way north of the Chesapeake Bay outlet, so it isn't Legend out of Baltimore. I'm just curious, and I know I could look it up on one of the ship traffic sites, but I figured someone here could probably give me a quick answer. So, for an Imaginary Ship on a Stick, who can tell me, which ship is this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shof515 Posted September 5, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Carnival does not sail out of Bayonne, they only sail out of the New York Terminal The Magic is currently sailing out of NYC, it could be that ship 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nybumpkin Posted September 5, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 5, 2022 There are two possibilities: Magic is currently sailing from Bermuda to New York (docking Monday morning) and Legend is sailing from Baltimore to Boston (Canada itinerary). They'd both be north of Chesapeake at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShakyBeef Posted September 5, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Does Magic have the new blue hull paint? It does look like it could be big enough to be Magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd both be north of Chesapeake at this point. It could be Legend. DH says it's very possible that he is wrong about it heading south. It could have been going north. But, Legend doesn't go by there "every Sunday", as the boat captain said this one does. But then, the boat captain could be mistaken, as well.

Rare shof515 Posted September 5, 2022 #7 Share Posted September 5, 2022 if you zoom in, you can somewhat see the glass panels in the funnel. Only the spirit class ships like the Legend has this on the magic, the waterworks area with the slides is more somewhat forward of the ship and not aft like this ship. more signs pointing to the legend 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShakyBeef Posted September 5, 2022 Author #8 Share Posted September 5, 2022 New info: we were able to zoom in on the original photo and could see that the funnel has the glass front (Spirit Class), so most likely Legend? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakyBeef Posted September 5, 2022 Author #10 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Neato! DH saw "our ship" (the ship on which we're booked for our next cruise) today.😀 Thanks, y'all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend leaves from Baltimore every Sunday on 7 day cruises (except when it doesn't, does 6+8 sometimes) Now I'm confused. I believe everyone that it is Legend, but I guess it must have been headed back to Baltimore when DH saw it? It was about 10:00 AM, 80 miles off coast. It couldn't have left Baltimore yesterday and gotten to that point of the Ocean by that time. It generally leaves Baltimore at about 4:00 PM for its week-long Sunday-to-Sunday sailings, and doesn't get out of the Bay until around 11:00 or midnight. So is the current sailing a longer cruise? A Journeys New England Canada cruise, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinpips Posted September 5, 2022 #15 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Legend is currently on an 8 day canada and New England cruise. Left Baltimore on 9/3, (Saturday), today is in Boston…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Cause most Sundays at that time Legend is docked at Baltimore doing turn around day. Maybe he usually sees the New York ship doing its 7-day sailings down to the Caribbean and just assumed this was the same ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New York does 8 day cruises to the Caribbean and 5-7 day cruises to the Bermuda. Now it will be doing 7 day cruises to Canada in a few weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably sees some Carnival ship(s) at intervals that feel like "every Sunday," but really are not that regular. I know for certain he isn't seeing Legend out there "every Sunday". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KmomChicago Posted September 5, 2022 #19 Share Posted September 5, 2022 He sees some damn Carnival ship almost every Sunday and can't tell them apart anyway. That's Kmom's take on this situation from the view of the Peanut Gallery. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
