Very little movement of the vessel.
Does anyone have more information?

Kasco, i presume they are still trying to iron out some problems. I,m sure the eta for north sydney will be changed soon. Like you i,m anxious to hear when she departs bremenhaven so as to keep up on her progress. I hope all aboard have a safe voyage across as north atlantic especially western part has been very rough all winter.

well she is on her way just south or Landewednack .. she is going a little slower that puttees did at 18.5 knots puttees went over 20knots... i wonder why she is going slower??

slow steaming saves fuel oil. There should be no hurry, the first scheduled trip is still far away.

The Highlanders will not have a easy crossing. Storm conditions until she is west of NL.

Perhaps the company have learnt what happens when you send a ship fast. Didn't the Blue Puttees have a date for a viewing that the company couldn't or wouldn't rearrange? And she had to be for that date.

MA's top end hasnt learned anything...


Good thing Harvey Durnford was at the helm of the Puttee's, the man has more miles on open water than all of MA's top end has driving a car combined.

So ..Hows she doing plugging her way across the cold North Atlantic.

[snocky]

Gulfspan,looks like rough crossing as north atlantic is "turmoiling" right now. Hope all aboard are well & have safe voyage.
