Being on ship sounds like a nightmare. Stuck with hundreds of people and no animals for days on end with no way to escape. No thanks!
Maybe 3 meters. Its a nice day out there
Who gives a fuck
Thr QE2 is bot a cruise ship. It is an ocean liner, built to handle rough seas with aplomb. The high bow, high sides, and bulkier hull all speak to a robust build.
Correct but this is the QM2, the other old tub retired years ago.
any ship riding 20 foot waves and 70 mph winds that smooth is something else. The MS Funchel would be listing 40 degrees
Notice how stable the horizon is, these stabilizers really do work !
No ship is unsinkable! What the sea wants, the sea will take!!
I was on that very same cruise! Had a wonderful time
Had seas like that on the Holland America Westerdam between Ketchikan, Alaska and Victoria, BC, Canada. Most of the passengers were down in their cabins. I had thankfully been taking a seasickness pill every day throughout the cruise and did fine. Great experience!
That ship has some amazing stabilizers. You can tell by the horizon line it hardly moves in those rough seas.
Nothing to do with stabilisers it's punching head on to the swell if they turned sideways then it would rock n roll.
@@jase4270 I see thanks
Wow, riding very nicely for those conditions. I have been in similar conditions in my 44’ sailboat. Oh yes, quite different. But the seas seem to be reasonably spaced. And the sky is filled with “wolf pack” cumulus clouds, which is good. Yeah, a VERY smooth ride for these conditions. Gales in the wide open ocean, barring contrary currents or undersea mounds, can be reasonably safe in a yacht, if not comfortable. And in the Queen Mary? Down right comfortable.
Stuck in bed with a migraine. Watching this really simulates the seasickness experience.
Now there’s a man who knows how to summarise his purport in a few succinct words . Aye Aye Cap’n.
When and where was this. I was on her last week and 6 weeks ago.
@@watchtellyinuk This was between Durban and Cape Town in April this year. Part of the world cruise.
I crossed on The Q M 2 3 times and then on The Norwegian Escape .The Escape was just as good in the rough weather and way more fun , than The Q M 2
I was on a cruise in the Pacific coming from Cozumel to LA. We hit a storm and it was a big one. Most passengers stayed in their cabin. My poor wife was seasick and stayed in bed. When I ate in the dining room, I could see the ship rocking in the waves. I had to hold my plate to eat. Stuff was sliding. I had to use the handrails. We were in no danger, but it was an experience. A good thing was there was no one at the bar but me, so service was A1.
The ship doesnt move! Why the ship doesnt move?
Because a force 9 gale and those small waves are peanuts for a proper ocean going ship. And stabilisers are good too
Loved our 3.5 months on QM2 last year. Sounds like the lovely Captain Andrew Hall ❤️
Only 3.5 months ?
This brings back some nice memories. Crossed Southampton to New York July 2023. Hope to sail on her again some day.
Did the crossing on QM2 November ‘23. Two days of rough seas put almost half the crew in bed. Second day we had a 3° list. We loved it. What a great ship.
Only 3 degresse ? Wow that is impressive !
I rode the waves on QM2 in 2016 right after the remodel and I can be the witness that the ship handled very well as it was primarily designed to cross the pond in high seas.
Hope I'll get to see some turbulence on my next westbound crossing in December.
I just love watching the rough weather from the windows onboard QM2 - along by the theatre (where I suspect you may have filmed this from) is SUCH a great view!
Yes, filmed this from deck 2 just beside the Royal Court Theatre
Was that Captain Christopher Rynd's voice? He was the ship's captain in early 2008 on the maiden round-the -world voyage of Queen Victoria that I was on. Smooth sailing all the way except for very rough passage between Corsica and Sardinia on Rome to Barcelona leg. I heard that Captain Rynd transferred to the bridge of QM2 some time later.
Sounds like Captain Hall. He was master when I was aboard in my December crossing.
It was Captain Andrew Hall who was in charge on our route from Singapore back to Southampton.
The Cunard Line Commodore Christopher Rynd retired from Merchant Navy service in November 2018. Prior to his retirement, he was the Commodore of the Cunard Line fleet along with being the "master" of the Queen Mary 2. Although Christopher Rynd has retired from the Cunard Line and the Merchant Navy he retains the position of Commodore.
@@seansparks2803 , hope he is living comfortably on some island, now. Like, Malta.
@@colinmontgomery1956I think he's living in his native country of New Zealand.
That's not rough , not really
The quality of the ship make it appear so. It’s a force 9 gale ffs
Looks like a normal winter day in Queen Charlotte Sound.
Agree, a force 9 touching 10 is easy sailing for a proper ocean going vessel. A true mid force 11 is getting interesting. But windspeed alone is misleading actually, it's the sea state, the waves that can make it dangerous.
Very steady - the horizon hardly seems to move! Nice to hear the captain advising to take care when outside on decks so presumably people were able to watch mother nature's show from their steamer chairs out on the promenade deck.
Was this the first trans-Atlantic crossing of 2024? We were on that one and had rough seas.
It was between Durban and Cape Town. The sea had been worse overnight but was still fun to watch when the sun came up.
I was on QM2 a few years back, and we had some rough seas as well. I'm not sure if they were as bad as this or not, but I dare say on board, we never felt them. We saw water tossing about, but never rocked a bit. She is, indeed, built to withstand these crossings. Thanks for the video!
I crossed on her 3 times , I was having fun with the girls serving tables in Commodores , during this type of weather .Some of the girl servers were feeling a bit ill, so I would remind the servers that , first we go up then we go down .They would ask me to please stop , saying that .
Love these rough seas videos.
What happened to Roger e broggie and Roy o disney
Awesome!
Love the sound of that bell. Brings back old memories❤
🎉🎉🎉🤝🤝👍👍💪💪💪💪
Brother nice location. I subscribe you.
Walter has a new whistle again, even though we didn’t hear it in this vid.
