[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 3055040, member: 18708"] These ships are generally capable of handling a hurricane, as are the captain and crew. The biggest unknown in hurricane forecasting is not "track", but intensity forecasting. Irma went through "RI" rapid intensification much earlier than the NHC or any agency/outlet forecasted. In 18 hours, from a meager tropical storm to a powerful major hurricane. Basically, the ship was stuck on it's track and the hurricane intensified well beyond forecasts. This was really a coincidence more than anything. [/QUOTE]
