Just disembarked this morning and missing this cruise already. I will be curious to see what time they're able to leave given the late arrival this morning.

 

As an a heads up, the last 2 days have been a whirlwind for the Zaandam crew: we had a medical disembark yesterday as mentioned upthread, and on Tuesday night the ship rescued a man from a sinking sailboat in the Bahamas. Both situations involved adjusting course, stopping the ship at night, and launching tenders, which was really interesting to see. Truly some difficult nautical maneuvers and impressive leadership onboard!

She's late by about 20 minutes. Not too bad.

[erewhon]

No further toots!

Here comes Zaandam.

Obvious movement now.

There is her bow.

[StLouisCruisers]

Arrived just in time!

[erewhon]

A real ship, like her sister Volendam.

[Happily@Sea]

No PP for her.

Are we watching for anyone's wave today?

That was a difficult maneuver this morning to back in past the Silver Nova. Zaandam does not have the azipods either. Very capable bridge team.

That is it for today. Rotterdam tomorrow. Thanks everyone.
