Can someone explain what Cruise Ducks are? I saw the cutest picture of a rubber duckie on the Shipmate app with a little note that said something to the extent of; Yay! you found the cruise duck. Re-hide him or keep him. Then it said he had been hand panted and where he was from. What piqued my interest was the comments saying they couldn't wait to play and find one.

Really? Packing what I need is hard enough. I don’t need to throw a stupid plastic duck in my luggage.
unless of course the ship has skeet shooting and I can shoot that sucker into a dozen pieces
I believe my wife is deploying 12 firefighter ducks on-board Symphony of the Seas for the April 25th Sailing...all because i opened my big mouth. lol
I think i might need to duck out of this conversation ;)
Noticed that there are a number of "cruising duck" groups on FB. People coordinating duck deployment etc.
So its like message in a bottle. If we buy some to take, looks like we should bring tags too - right?
I just requested to join the face book group. I cruise in August and plan on doing this.
Here is a ducky that my non husband found. I was whining that I had not found any and 10 seconds later he finds it. LOL It even has a mustache like he does. Two of our fellow cruisers felt sorry for me so they gave me 2.
Since it has already been explained a few times, if anyone is interested, this is the face book page a friend created a few months ago. We are up to over 1400 members already. Lots of GREAT people here. Please feel free to join. We'd love to have you. It's called Duck Pirates.
Wow Maryred, 144 ducks. I would have no room for clothes LOL. There is a FB page dedicated to the cruising ducks and people post their finds there. Hopefully it stays a fun trend and not ruined by the actions of a random few.
Maryred, you are so good at finding the whole story! Thanks for sharing with the rest of us!
