Thanks Hallasm.

 

Any idea if there will be a live stream of any sort?

 

Yes. We will se something from the same people who delivered us the float outs.

 

NDR.de will be streaming.

HD1080ide will attempt to do so as well.

Inselvideo will be videotaping. I am not sure about videotaping.

 

Meyer Werft will stream within the shipyard and nearby? ...

 

From the press release at http://www.meyerwerft.de/de/meyerwerft_de/medien/presseticker/pressemitteilung_detail_18373.jsp

Wait, if it is leaving in 2 days, shouldnt they be putting North star on soon? From the webcam it doesnt look like hey have started yet.

 

Quantum of the Seas will moor for several days at Columbus Quay in Bremerhaven. There will be additional fitting out there, prior to sea trials. The Northstar will probably be added on there. That way there is less weight for the river conveyance. It will be a "relatively" simple matter to bolt on the arm and turret, add the observation capsule then connect, fill and test the hydraulics.

Ems Conveyance of Quantum is Delayed

The transfer of the quantum of the Seas is postponed at short notice because of the adverse weather and tidal conditions. Due to the unclear forecasts, there are several options, so that no new times has been published.

The Ems Conveyance of Quantum of the Seas will begin no earlier than Sunday evening. Even a later time is possible.

The decision is made by the transfer team at Meyer Werft on Sunday around noon.

yikes. Hopefully the weather turns better soon, or it looks like they will have to wait two weeks until they can try again. (new and full moons only)
