Biggest ships

The biggest ship ever built by man is like a pine needle floating in a lake. If you want to relax in a hotel like environment by the sea, then stay at a hotel on land by the sea. Otherwise accept that the ocean does not care how much money you spent on your cruise, if it wants to toss you around like a rag doll, it will whenever it wants.

Love the experienced cruiser chilling out and telling the staff "The window's open, don't fall out"

There's no amount of money in the universe that would make me step foot on those damn cruise ships. In addition to being extremely tacky, the risk of you becoming shark food is imminent.

Home sweet home! Isn't it wonderful to stay home and to enjoy nature at a fraction of the cost?

Nothing like being at the mercy of the sea. At worst everyone could drown, at best everyone could believe that they will drown.

A former colleague of mine that worked as a waiter during his student days on some of the big ships that traveled the Great Lakes, told me that he used to spray water on the table cloths in the dining rooms to prevent the possibility of plates, bowls and cutlery from sliding off the tables in times of rough water.

Mama Nature just reminding cruisers that she’ll always be in charge of the itinerary!

In freight ships, the furniture never dances, it is firmly fixed to the floor.
I like the replica of the storm in the pool, it's a beautiful sight.

Had the pleasure of being on one of the Princess Line's mega boats as it travelled down the eastern coast of New Zealand's sth island just before Covid, when we hit Force 10 gales and 30' waves. Probably the worst sleep I've ever had because my head, which faced the bow of the ship, kept smashing in to the bed head everytime it hit a massive wave! Feeling a massive ship come to a dead stop because of a wave and then start moving fwd again was amazing. Thankfully we were never out of sight of the coast so it did give some semblance of it will all be OK.

My 2nd ever cruise on Carnival we ran into some rough seas near Cape Hatteras headed back to New York. Capt. Bovo diverted to calmer seas and it was great. I think he’s retired now, but thanks Captain Bovo where ever you are.

My wife and I were on an Atlantic crossing from Southampton to New York in 2015. We ran into some pretty extreme weather, 110 knot winds in a Force 13 gale. The ship was down to 5 knots and was actually quite comfortable for us and we enjoyed the thrill of it as we have both been on boats most of our lives. Unfortunately, a lot of passengers were ill and fairly scared which was a shame for them. However, we came out of it without any problems that I am aware of. I took some movie footage of the swells spraying up from the bow as it dipped down into them and also the rolling of the ship, looking at the horizon through the side windows.

In 2001, our Norwegian North American Cruise hit rough seas when enroute to Boston. The captain had to go further out to sea to avoid the rocky coastline. It wasn’t quite as bad as this video but the ship was really rocking. Dishes were falling in the kitchen while my husband and I ate dinner by the window in a near empty dining room. We had to eat with one hand while holding our wine glasses. He held the bottle between his knee. We don’t get seasick but many were in bad shape. It was quite an experience.

Holy shit. That’s gotta feel like a roller coaster. Moving all around on the big monster waves

[squonk]

Been there, done that and all I can say is what a ride and still love my cruises 👍

How on earth is it possible for a ship to stay afloat in these extreme conditions?

I was on a cruise with Royal Caribbean before the large class ships like the Navigator of the Seas and we sailed around the outer edge of a Cat 1 hurricane and the ship rocked a bit during the night and the passengers were still dancing while the ship was swaying, but it wasn't severe because everyone still had the ability to remain standing without falling down. Typically if a major storm is on the ships heading the cruise will be canceled. If during a cruise and an impending storm can be avoided, the captain will alter course.

1:28, 2:36, and 3:28 all the same day, same ship, and this was a highly unusual situation because that ship had completely lost power, so there were no propellers or stabilizers to attenuate the movement, it was just bobbing around in high seas like a piece of cork in the ocean. A normal funtioning ship would not move so radically even in very high seas.

How exhilarating! I should have gone on a cruise to experience that one day, along with doing some tornado chasing when I was young!
