Pretty bad reporting but interesting video none the less.

Hi,

It seems the weather affects Grey Funnel Line ships too.

http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/4438...neral-on-board

This is the latest in quite a long line of problems to beset these vessels, the latest being blamed on heavy weather not the fact that the Electronic Control Box is mounted straight above the Exhaust and this is not the first vessel to have the same problem regardless of the sea condition.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nothing gets past you guys! I knew I should have looked here for news first LOL. Pascal & NY Capt. probably had a call from the Capt of the ship for pointers on how to handle the situation!

Oh, you heard about that call. Yes, it was all very dramatic. Actually, it was on the morning news when I turned on my computer. You must have been listening to Howard Stern instead. (I think I just took a left turn with this thread. Sorry. )
