Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. All UK and Ireland medivacs are carried out by RÑLI or CG helicopters, sometimes both will be involved depending on situation.
  2. Zeebrugge correct Nov 22 QM2 NL cruise somewhere in this video are the breakwaters at harbour entrance Zeebrugge departure (4).MTS
  3. Absolutely and now many people's favourite.
  4. It is clearly going to be different in the same way QV was different to QE2.
  5. ten minutes previously the port would have been easy to identify this much visited port
  6. Social media reports suggest QA is now 100% finished and today shipyard workers and their families are being invited on board as per custom. 2morrow being official acceptance.
  7. Indeed opinion based on ignorance is usually wrong.
  8. these photos St Petersburg 2016 from QE illustrate clearly the difference made by berth position and wind direction wind was 45knots west more or less straight on QE beam note the slight list of the HA ship spray was felt on deck QV deck 10 the Viking and MSC ships got away with tug assistance perhaps with wind about 5 degrees on port bow it took 2 tugs to move the bunker barge away from QE we left the next morning in a flat calm and were a day late to Kiel which was a disembarkation and embarking port. comments at dinner and elsewhere that evening illustrated how easy it is to be critical without responsibility the many amateur captains on board were full of fanciful theories about the QE captain ability and otherwise as three ships the Viking and both QV and QM2 were delayed the wind was most likely the cause of the delay
  9. katabactic effect air spiralling down from Table Mt often produces strong winds in harbour and narrow entrance channel AIS has Tenerife as destination.,
  10. there is an interesting exchange of views between QV pax and Viking pax on the Viking forum

    QM2 fire

    Exactly that happened on our corridor on QV when an overheated fan belt led to burning smell and some small amount of smoke.q Quickly sorted but ship wide announcement made.
  12. https://www.cunardcruceros.com/cunard/en.html find your cruise click on map pop up appears with times
  13. All QA Southampton sailings for 24 appear to be on VTS cruise schedule.
