Was out of the house all morning and just got back to a message left on the answering machine from DH. Jimmy was sitting at his desk in downtown Manhattan and watched the ss OCEANIC sail by.:big grin: He said she still looks great and wished he had taken the camera with him

LEAKY CRUISE SHIP DETAINED IN NY HARBOR

POST STAFF REPORT

Last updated: 11:10 am

June 26, 2009

A leaky cruise ship carrying 848 passengers from Iceland is being held in New York Harbor.

A small hole was discovered in the ship's hull during a routine safety inspection. About a gallon of water per hour was coming into the ship, according to the Coast Guard.

Chief Petty Officer Russ Tippets said today that's "a very small amount."

He added that officials expect the damage to be repaired before the ship's scheduled departure for Venezuela tomorrow.

Sheesh. Same thing happened last year with the Peace Boat (Clipper Pacific). Methinks taking the Peace Boat could be a foolhardy thing to do?!? :shock:

The continuing saga of the OCEANIC/PEACE BOAT

The New York Daily News today reports:

US Coast Guard divers tried to seal a hairline crack with epoxy bt were unsuccessful.

The OCEANIC will now have to be dry docked in New Jersey for further repairs.

The 848 passengers will go to Atlantic City for 4 days:big grin:

 

Becky as you posted the PEACE BOAT was stuck in Tampa last year for repairs.

The last Peace Boat before the Oceanic was stuck in NYC last July.

NEW YORK (WABC) -- A 637-foot cruise ship carrying approximately 1,200 passengers and crew is being detained in New York Harbor after a routine safety inspection revealed significant hull damage and numerous discrepancies.
