In this context, "contact" refers to the communication link between the ship and the shore using the radio. The storm disrupted or cut off this connection, preventing further communication between the two.
Ship/Shore communications: 1) For roughly the first half mile or so a cell phone might work (depending on the towers in the area). 2) VHF radio is line-of-site and usually works for roughly 26 miles. (ship/ship and ship/shore) 3) HF radio will reach around the globe. (ship/ship and ship/shore) 4) Satellite phones work from roughly 80 degees North to 80 degrees South - realistically anywhere in the world that MOST tourists would go.
The American word for the boat that takes you from a cruise ship to shore is called a "tender." Tenders are typically smaller boats used to transport passengers to and from the ship when it is anchored offshore and unable to dock directly at a port.
While there isnt really a legal definition of what constitutes a boat or a ship, seamen generally go by the principle definition that a BOAT can be carried by a SHIP but a SHIP cannot be carried by a BOAT.

Ship-shore communication methods refer to the various means by which vessels communicate with land-based facilities, such as ports and shipping companies. These methods include radio communications, satellite systems, and internet-based communications like email and messaging services. Effective ship-shore communication is vital for navigation, safety, and operational coordination. It ensures timely information exchange regarding weather updates, navigation hazards, and logistical support.
It is called a tender. They use the life boats for this.
Ship to Shore - album - was created in 1976.
wierd question. Do you mean The British Navy have 20 ships or we will ship your goods tomorrow either way its ship. DO NOT call a submarine a ship as the commander will sink you, its a boat. DO NOT call a ship a boat or the captain will sink you. Where the border between boat and ship is for someone else to answer
The ship and the ferry could both be called boats these days.But generally a boat would be a smaller vessel than the ship or ferry.The difference between the ship and the ferry is that the ferry runs a regular service and travels shorter distances.
