Caribbean Princess Chatter / Caribbean Princess seeks shelter while visiting Falmouth
« Last post by Host Mike on May 16, 2024, 12:34:41 PM »
"Visitors to a tiny beach in Cornwall were greeted with the surreal sight of a giant 113,000 tonnes cruise ship today (Thursday, May 16). Too big to dock in the harbour, the 952ft Caribbean Princess dropped its anchor off a small cove on the Roseland peninsula, using St Anthony Head to shelter from strong south-easterly winds whilst it tendered its passengers to Falmouth."

"With the headland offering some shelter from the south-easterly winds, the cruise ship was guided into position and dropped anchor."

Majestic Princess Chatter / Re: Man falls overboard on Majestic Princess cruise ship into East River

Main causes appear to be in no particular order:  drunks, fights, suicides and casino debts.  Only occasionally it was the result of an accident.
