Silver Wind at 6 and later on Oosterdam. Mechanical issues... missing passengers... what next???

[SJSULIBRARIAN]

It certainly has been a difficult day for the Oosterdam.

I was out on the deck for the sailaway, but I got too cold and we weren't moving, so I gave up.

Once on board who cares when the ship leaves, I say drink and be merry.

I noticed the webcam site was showing 64 degrees. Nice if you are in a sunny spot but very cool on an open deck of a ship with the sun setting.

 

Hopefully you will set sail soon.

Okay, I am going to feed dogs. I will be back.

I see we are on the same Feb cruise!

 

That's great looking forward to the cruise. I don't see your name listed on our Roll Call or the Meet & Greet we are holding in 2-21-16. Here is the link to the Roll Call come joint us.

Captain said all pax on board, now it's just the mechanical problem, another 30 minutes to departure.

[erewhon]

1800 departure hopefully.

[Scrapnana]

So what would the Coast Guard need to tell Oosterdam before she can sail??? Too bad Copper is sailing.

 

Silver Wind leaving passengers?

[Krazy Kruizers]

I am back.

But will we see much?

[erewhon]

SilverWind leaving pax behind and singling up.

[lka1012]

I'm back, puppies fed. What is our status?

[erewhon]

Silver Wind underway. Smoke from Oosterdam.

Sorry to hear that some Silver Wind won't make the ship in time for their cruise.

Did all the lights go out on the Oosterdam?

Are just some of the outside lights because she is due to sail?

[Boytjie]

Yeah! Toots!! :D

[Scrapnana]

Well that's a strange horn!
