Bit of a "shake your world" moment when i got a call from my brother about 20 minutes ago saying there had been a fire aboard. We arent 100% sure this is her boat but she was scheduled to leave Long Beach on Sunday as this boat did and i cant imagine there were multiple cruises leaving the same day from the same spot to the same destinations, but i may be wrong. I cant get a call through to her cell phone, but that doesnt surprise me being where they are.
But it appears all will be well albeit a bit of an inconveniance for the passengers.
