leerathje Posted October 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 22, 2023 So, this is a bit different….Due to an azipod that needed repair, ms Nieuw Amsterdam arrived on Saturday, so this will be a sailaway only. ms Nieuw Amsterdam is at pier 19, departing at 8:00 am, and she is leaving on an altered itinerary, now a 5 day Caribbean. The PTZtv webcam can be found at https://www.portevergladeswebcam.com/. Next up: Nieuw Amsterdam and Eurodam on Saturday, October 28, 2023.

Leanne One of the pax on board reported the captain said 8:30 am tomorrow, so maybe adjusted by the morning. I'll still plan for the top of the hour anyway, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ANGELCAT Posted October 23, 2023 #3 Share Posted October 23, 2023 She’s getting ready to leave. Nice closeup on the webcam. People are out on the bow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petunia1950 Posted October 23, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 23, 2023 She moved ... and then stopped. She may be waiting for uncoming traffic to clear ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StLouisCruisers Posted October 23, 2023 #6 Share Posted October 23, 2023 She had a little traffic to avoid. Hoping all aboard will still enjoy this shorter cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Denise T Posted October 23, 2023 #10 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I have such memories of Nieuw Amsterdam. I will sail on her sister ship in 2025. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted October 23, 2023 #12 Share Posted October 23, 2023 And she's gone. Two threads for one port call might be a first. Thanks Leanne, Lou & Dave, and fellow addicts. Roy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLouisCruisers Posted October 23, 2023 #13 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I hope when PTZ says the webcam on the Pier 66 hotel will be back online in 2024 they don't mean December 2024! I miss that view! So nice to see this unusual morning departure and hear so many nice long toots! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted October 23, 2023 #14 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) I slept in too late. I did get to see the last few seconds of her sailaway. But I did need the sleep. Thanks, Leanne, for the threads. We get the Signature sisters on Saturday. Edited October 23, 2023 by Happily@Sea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartgrove Posted October 23, 2023 #16 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I wonder if it was the seal on the azipod like the Nieuw Statendam experienced last April 2022. That was due to inactivity during the Pandemic which allowed sea life to burrow into the seal thus leaking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched Rotterdam go out yesterday and would've appreciated that view for the basin turn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAKcruiser Posted October 23, 2023 #18 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I was on that sailing of the Nieuw Statendam in April 2022. Not only did they replace the seal, but it didn't hold and they had to do it again. We left a day late on a cruise that had already been been shortened by two days due to scheduled maintenance on the azipod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAKcruiser Posted October 23, 2023 #20 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I agree. We sailed in November and it just seemed that things were off with service, etc. Also, the ship seemed to be in need of maintenance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
