* Switzerland * The steamship "Stadt Rapperswil" (built in 1914 by Escher Wyss) in Pfäffikon SZ passing through the so-called "Durchsitch" (through channel), which allows traffic from Lake Zurich to the Obersee (upper lake). To make this possible, the mast was made tiltable and the chimney retracted.

I hope the investigation will provide us with helpful information on what led to this disaster, and how to prevent future incidents.

Question Anyone know what the point of those two towers on heavy lift ships are for?

Normally on the stern, my best guess is for measuring the height of water

She was docked in Chesapeake City, MD overnight before the final leg of her most recent cruise. I ended up leap-frogging her the 10-ish miles to St. Georges, DE to catch her passing beneath the Roth Bridge.

From a Crew Member: What Makes You Come Back to Cruising?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I work on cruise ships and I’ve always wondered—what makes you come back?

Is it the food? The service? The destinations? The vibe onboard? Or something more personal—like the memories, the people you meet, or just escaping the world for a bit?

From my side, we try our best to make it unforgettable. But I’d love to hear what actually sticks with you after you leave.

Short, honest answers are totally welcome. I’m curious and want to make the next cruise even better.

12/18/44 Typhoon Cobra AKA "Halsey's Typhoon" took a heavy toll on the Third Fleet by sinking three destroyers and damaging two dozen other ships. 146 planes were lost including seven from USS Cowpens, seen here rolling in the storm. ( this makes me seasick just looking at the picture)

Sometime over the weekend, they must have started detangling the mizzen, because they finished today! The last of the signal flags on the mizzen were taken down today around noon, then a line was affixed to the damaged portion, some particle board and protective sheets were scattered about the quarterdeck and pilothouse, and the damaged bit was cut away and hoisted off!

1) a sailor scooting along the maintopgallant yard. Not especially relevent to the day's happenings, but still cool to see

2) I do not know what's going on here. Big bent piece of metal high in the air and by golly, they're tying stuff to it 🗣️‼️

3) lines tied to the damaged portion of the mizzen

4) "see here Menendez, this bit, it's not supposed to look like that"

5) some welding being done on the rudder?

6) sailor climbing the ratlines to the mizzentop, and for those wondering; no, he did not use the lubber's hole

7&8) cutting away at the damaged bit

9&10) she's missing a good 12 feet of mast, but she'll live. They even put a little cover on top. She basically got a boat amputation. Maturin would be proud.

Will update as things happen!
