Scarlet Lady: Funchal Madeira on December 4th, 2024 (with AIDAblu, Arcadia, & Marella Explorer 2)

On November 28th Virgin Voyages' Scarlet Lady set sail on a 16 night From Rome to Miami Transatlantic Voyage crossing both the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean. Sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome) she made stops in various ports along the way. This was her first sailing after returning from Virgin Voyages first ever dry dock and completed her inaugural Mediterranean season as she sailed home to Florida. The Scarlet Lady's third port of call on this transatlantic voyage was to the city of Funchal in the Madeira Islands. On that day the AIDAblu, P&O Arcaida, and Marella Explorer 2 were already in port occupying every available berth. That meant that Scarlet Lady had to anchor in the harbor and tender her passengers ashore. Unfortunately the seas were on the rougher side making the journey a bit more wild than usual. This video was filmed on December 4th 2024 while visiting Funchal Madeira Portugal. 16 Night November 28th, 2024 From Rome to Miami Transatlantic Voyage Itinerary: Day 1: Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy (11/28/24 Departing at 6:00 PM) Day 2: At Sea Day 3: Barcelona, Spain (11/30/24 from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM) Day 4: At Sea Day 5: Málaga, Spain (12/2/24 from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM) Day 6: At Sea Day 7: Funchal, Madeira, Portugal (12/4/24 from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM) Day 8: Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain (12/5/24 from 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM) Day 9: At Sea Day 10: At Sea Day 11: At Sea Day 12: At Sea Day 13: At Sea Day 14: At Sea Day 15: At Sea Day 16: At Sea Day 17: Miami, Florida (12/14/24 Arriving at 1:30 AM) Content: 0:00:00 Intro 0:00:16 Scarlet Lady Approaching Madeira 0:02:30 Port of Funchal in Sight 0:09:28 Ships in Port 0:10:12 Nearing Funchal 0:14:10 Approaching the Harbor 0:16:27 Attempting to Stop 0:18:00 Getting Positioned for Tendering Operations 0:18:20 Starting to Prep the Tenders 0:22:50 Lowering the Tender into the Water 0:28:35 Ships Docked in Port 0:29:23 Continuously Repositioning to Tender Operations 0:30:14 P&O Arcadia Setting Sail 0:34:04 Tender Operations while Positioned in the Harbor 0:38:00 Final Tenders Returning 0:42:25 Loading Tender 0:55:00 Turning to Depart 0:59:09 Loading the Final Tender 1:00:16 Securing the Final Tender 1:02:53 Setting Sail 1:15:13 Next Videos
