Thanks for this. I currently sat at 2Bcr with 10 well built ships with moderate engineering. Would love to get that FC for shipping the fleet around to engineers and material gathering etc. Will be great having individual ships on hand depending on what role i want to undertake. This will be my first booze cruise and have a python ready on the Snooze FC ready for this event. Hopefully i can log in and get some time in when it kicks off. 🤞enjoy the ride!
Dang!! It sounds like you are well on your way to getting your fleet carrier. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the video as well. We plan to make another when the event begins. How many credits will you need to take the plunge and get a fleet carrier?
@@abelireviews i've found your videos very helpful. I'll probably get it when I have around 7, so need another 5. Want to make sure I have plenty of upkeep banked away. I'll be sure to watch the next once the Rackhamians switch on party mode. Cant wait to see the view from up there. Thanks and keep on (space) trucking!
@@abelireviews I even took part on one of the cruises. you can give something back when you have your own carrier. but be warned: the journey to the peak takes over 6 hours! and it's literally like: plot the next jump, wait 25 minutes, plot the next jump.... and do something else in between xD And it is very very very important to communicate with the people who do the trafic control. it makes things easier for everyone :)
Thanks for the heads up. When we do get a fleet carrier, we hope to participate. It does sound like getting to the destination is quite a time investment.
This is my first time up here, I’m currently parked at HD 104495 with only 2 jumps left to go but HD 105341 has no available carrier slots. Seems no one is getting in or out. I’m not so much concerned about the money, I only brought 5000t of wine with me, but I did want to visit the place.
That is unfortunate. There is always the possibility the 48 hour event won’t take place. When that happens we are stuck playing the waiting game. Wishing you the best of luck. 🤞
You won’t lose any money. The “booze cruise” happens when the people (NPCs) at the station Rackham’s Peak in the HIP 58832 system have a public holiday. During that time, they ask for alcohol and pay way above the galactic average for it. This allows for great trade opportunities during the 48-hour duration of the party. However, the party is a bet. Each month, there is a chance or “bet” that the event won’t happen.
Indeed, in some less liberal systems, selling wine might be frowned upon. However, everyone at the station Rackham’s Peak in the HIP 58832 system welcomes what we have to sell.
Absloutely great, i'm playing to this game for years and this new way to play, exposes the depth of Elite Dangerous and it's community
You’re correct, it’s a great game, and there is always something new to learn.

Best of luck! The next event could be any day now.
@khyber-noeticflux6175 the view is the best part! Looks like it could start within the next 24 hours. Fingers crossed!!!🤞
AAAhhhh yes! The good old booze cruise :3
I made about 12b by now. You can run a carrier for ever basically with that much credits.
That's really great to hear. We are not quite there yet. But having a fleet carrier is on our bucket list!

Seems fun, i haven't tried that yet.
It’s great. There is still time. The event hasn’t started yet. Get yourself to the Gali system and board the Booze Snooze.

That’s really cool you’re so close!! Hopefully a spot opens up so you can experience the views. Wishing you the very best of luck.

@Zone0fAvoidance awww thank you so much for the kind words. Keep us posted on your adventures.
Why do y'all say that this is a bet? Am I going to somehow lose money on this?

@@abelireviews ??? Interesting. Ok.
Hope the answer above was helpful. Reach out for any additional questions.
