Default That's why generators made sence.

BTW, I think that dropping Porta-Potties to the ship would have been classic. How many Porta-Potties would it take to accomodate 4,000 passengers and 1,000 crew. It would have been an impossible task to transport them to the ship and then to assemble them on deck so all the passengers and crew could use them.[/QUOTE]

Cunard (or maybe the british as it looked like a military style helo) airlifted military style generators to the QE2 when we were in the same situation off the coast of Spain. They set them up on the bow deck service area and all the johns and meal prep etc was back up and running within an hour of recieving the generators. Just saying I don't get the difference.
