Cruise ship tipping...?

[Chili327]

Can somebody explain to me what is wrong with this.?

I mean i dont see THAT big of waves, etc. but his thing seems like it tilts over to the right side so far, as if everyone on board & all the cargo is all on that right side. or is it hitting something & its roilling over onto it.?

 

IDK, it just doesn't seem right to me.

Chilli it is because of the direction the waves are hitting the ship... the captain should have turned into the waves...

 

While I was aboard my ship on a trip back to the base in HI... we hit a storm that tossed us around like a rag doll

The wind and swell combination are what is pushing it. That's why most cruise ships won't sail in storms. Ships like that are best in calm waters.

 

You should watch Deadliest catch those guys get Rocked.

also, the swells don't look all that big relative to the ship, but it is a HUGE ship. look at the size of the swimming pool on the back deck or the safety boats on the size.

Yeah, it's large......and the waves were washing over her bow...

 

THIS is why my wife can't get me on a cruise......thanks for the extra ammo!

absolutely correct the ship is dead in the water meaning no engines or power they are under complete control of the storm ships can easily be bullied like that in that position by decent size waves.. like he said ships are meant to "jog" the waves that ship most likely got hit By a rogue wave knocked out its power to the engines and became the oceans bitch

Also, the stablizers go out in cruise ships all the time. Almost everyoen I personally know that went on a cruise said it happened to the ship they were on.

Yea i can read.. lol

It doesn't tell me why it practically tips 90 degrees one way & not the other though. Its as if it has been pushed against something so the deep bottom of the boat hits something underwater so it cant tip that way as far.

 

IDK, looks crazy to me. I dont think i could ever sleep on a boat ever again. lol

At the bottom it says 75% off Carnival Cruise.
