In my experience with 15 cruises...we always to manage to board around noon. Sometimes a bit earlier...sometimes a bit later. A lot depends on if the ship has come in on time from the previous trip. It's worth a look at the cam or a call to NCL if you're concerned about the timing due to weather. I can only remember one time we didn't board early and that was because the ship was delayed returning due to a hurricane on a trans-Atlantic voyage. That time we didn't board until 8pm and didn't leave port until midnite. It was very uncomfortable being squashed in the departure building with little to no refresments. It really is worth a call or a look to find out if the ship has come in on time. Happy cruising.
