The Spirit was originally built for the Asian market and everything is smaller and lower to the ground..windshields,chairs,everything!!.
Bob....that sounds like my kind of ship :wink: :clown:
Robyn--I guess it has something to do with a lower center of gravity? :P
:lol: :lol: Yes, Bob - I'm another one who's vertically-challenged :mrgreen:
Saphire Princess in Tauranga

Coming and going in Key West.

Do you have a different site for that cam? I haven't been able to get it to open for weeks :evil:

Fantasy looks depressed…..
Phyllis, here is the raw link to the Mallory cam. Seems to be OK :?:

Cam is back on but jumping around a lot.

Glad cam is back :D Jumping we can take, I guess
Now, Wrest Point is the NEXT one to come back on :?: :?: :?:
No E-Mail address there, as far as I can see. Thinking of sending a printscreen of the redX for publishing on their archives :evil:
As Sapphire was leaving Auckland tonight I got a snap of the wharf where QM2 will berth.I think they may move the cranes for her on that day,and I believe HUGE marquees and masses of potted palms are on order.


(not quite that long the cranes should overlap,but it gives the idea.)
She has just swung into the channel.We should see her pass the end of our peninsula in about 1 hour.

Fantasy looks depressed…..
Oh No !
We now need a Dr. Phil for ships ?
( by the way, that blowhard grew up in my neck of the woods and his first wife also )
Dear Dr. Phil,
My aft is very low in the water and my bow is drooping.
I think I need a drydock but my owners will not give me any time off.
I want a vacation from carrying all these idiot passengers who run all over my back, scratch up my woodwork, slam my doors and generally make me feel like a tired old lady.
Could you please give me a prescription for some Prozac ?
I need a lift and most of my lifts are not working. That makes people take the stairs and that in turn makes me shake.
I also need a paint job but I don't suppose that is going to happen.
Appreciate your consideration to my plight.
If you can not help me, I may just go belly up.
Sincerely,
Fantasy.
