Cruise Ship Coral Adventurer Runs Aground in Papua New Guinea: All Safe, Investigation Underway
The Australian-flagged Coral Adventurer cruise ship ran aground on a reef off Papua New Guineas coast, leaving all 124 passengers and crew unharmed. Strong sea currents pushed the ship onto the reef, causing a six-degree list to the port side. Despite attempts to refloat the ship, it remained stuck, and passengers were flown back to Cairns a day early. The ships operator, Coral Expeditions, is under investigation for a previous incident where an elderly woman was left behind on a remote Great Barrier Reef island. Authorities have detained the ship and are conducting safety reviews. Checkout Solipillow.com
