Check out this FAKE man overboard!!

[poodlemom396]

We watched them throw this poor "dude" overboard in a drill while in port in Roatan. Much to our dismay we drank two cups of coffee while they "dropped" a lifeboat to rescue him. We thought he would be back in Cuba by that time if we were sailing. You should have seen the two workers they sent to rescue him. They were very confused to say the least on how to get the boat down.

Geez... I don't blame them for not rushing! This guy's a gonner! He's got no head!!!

Wow I didn't know they had drills where passengers could actually watch. You took a picture of something most people won't be able to say they ever saw! I saw your pets on Webshots....cute Maltese I have 4 of them :)

No head!?

He had no hands or feet either.

Around these parts we call that shark bait.

Man, he looks light he had a baaaaaaaaaaaaad night in the casino, to say the least!

 

I like your lobster much better!

Yeah!

I've heard about the casinos costing an arm and a leg, but golly! This guy must have really had a bad night at the tables!

I dunno, but I'm gonna make sure I'm paid up on everything where ever I go on the ship.;)

I have a short youtube video from last week's Conquest. No man overboard but we did watch a lifeboard drill. It was pretty interesting.

they have these all the time. Maybe not with the dummy. But, I stay on the ship in ports alot and watch, what I hope are the new kids, try to lower the lifeboats. You would love seeing their faces when they drop down:eek: :D

I'm glad to see that they have a routine of practicing this. I never saw it happen once on my last cruise with a different line.

I witnessed a live boat drill after returning from a day in Montego Bay. I was impressed by how rapidly they ran the lifeboat down off the davits and had it ready and on its way!

 

These drills are conducted on a regular basis. Did y'all know that when the Freedom was doing her European/Med tour they used the life boats for tendering at quite a few ports?? Neat idea, eh?
