The camera's focused on the Quest but the Emerald shows .3 knots (and it was supposed to leave at 1600).

It says on my screen "sound on" but I did not hear a sound from the Emerald. I think the ships are intimidated by the Westerdam and so they don't give a "hoot"!

3 decent toots from the Freedom. Quest is now listed for 1830.

Emerald did the "standard" 3 toots. Better than Niew Amsterdam with nothing.

Sorry, that was the Freedom with 3 - not the Emerald. You were right, Emerald had nothing.

There was one time that Westerdam did well over 100. It was the last or second last time out of Florida last season. Next time someone sees Aliaschief, maybe they can ask him.

Quest under way.

It was very dark and there wasn't much volume but I thought I heard 3 nice sets of 3 toots. The nimble Quest made it from Pier 26 out to sea in about 7 minutes.

Oh my, I missed it all. Our five young grandchildren...and their parents...arrived earlier than expected for Sunday dinner. And just left...so I'm reading through the thread.

Noordam tomorrow!

I didn't hear it at all Melodie, I missed it.... I was watching the Port Canaveral webcam at the time. But last time such a high number was reported I heard less than half of that. Just wondering if it could, indeed, have been echoes, as I heard echoes on a sailaway last week.
