cruise ship: fail
Published Jul. 9, 2008
A cruise ship with 51 people on board ran aground and was stuck for about nine hours in Alaska. The ship was eventually towed to safety and a National Park Service vessel was transferring passengers and crew members to a nearby port before they were taken to Juneau, a US Coast Guard spokesman said.
Note the Bonus Fail of the lifeboat sitting aside the ship, also laying on the beach.
Captain Stubing was unavailable for comment.

Back in my days of sailing, I spent so much time aground that I simply referred to it as being “keel anchored”.
