Weirdness on The Pride
in Carnival Cruise Lines
Posted
I was on the 9/3 cruise.
I'm a fisherman and have spent much time in the Chesapeake and canyon fishing in the ocean.
It was a disappointing cruise I feel the the brass should have been more forthcoming overall and it seemed that they weren't totally honest.
When the Pride left Nassau it was calm. we did experience later on an easy 9 foot swell close together.( The Capt announced it)
It still looked calm. no white caps kinda glassy. we were running fast 22-23knts. Maybe backing off would have helped?? they probably wanted to get it over with. I have been in very rough seas on the pride (2011) and they backed off quite a bit and it was still bumpy.
Thing is is if they did slow to say 12-15 knts the could actually steam up the bay instead of floating at 4.4knts.
So you wonder maybe something did happen to the ship on the way back to B-more and they Limped up the bay.
Anyway the crew was awesome we had a blast, wish Irma didn't happen but god bless all the folks who actually had a bad week.
Maybe carnival should throw a few more bones now and then.
