HTH13 Posted August 18, 2007 Author #2 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Looks like an almost direct hit to Cozumel and Cayman as well as Jamaica. Doesn't make sense that they would avoid Jamaica but go to the other areas. Guess you'll have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yst347 Posted August 18, 2007 #3 Share Posted August 18, 2007 My guess is a three day sail around Cuba coming into Grand Cayman behind the storm is the current plan. In reality, what else could you do with a ship sailing from Galveston on Sunday? The current track of Dean blocks the Yucatan channel on Monday and Tuesday. If the storm turns, it can only turn north so the Conquest must sail due east from Galveston on Sunday to be in the best position to avoid the storm. I would not be surprised to see the Conquest spin in circles off NW Florida for a few days and make only one port call...that assuming any port in the Yucatan will accept ships next week. Too much about the storm is unknown at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
