Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to share the whole article so I just copied and pasted the link. It works.

Debbie, the link worked fine. It will be interesting to see what happens in the internal investigation.

Good job, Deb. Thanks for the link.

I'm glad the link works. Sometimes I surprise myself.

I sincerely hope that their investigation finds that the Captain of the Star Princess was not at fault. But it doesn't look good for them.

I read that story. It's hard to know all the details, so I'll withhold judgement for now, but I can't imagine the emotions those fishermen felt when the ship passed them by.

Huge article in our paper today about this as well. Sad and tragic story. Hopefully all of the details will come out.

Heard today that the Captain may not ever have gotten the word; breakdown somewhere lower down the chain. I surely hope they get to the bottom of this, and figure out a way to improve notifications to the bridge crew.

What a tragedy. I just keep thinking about the lone survivor, and how the passengers tried to help.

Things like this are really hard to know what the truth is unless you were there. So many things can be misunderstood or misinterpreted.
