Cnn 2007 Us 11 08 Ship.Rescue Art.Cruise.Ship.02.Wavy

It was a good day until the ship hit “something.”

The water started coming in.

In the Intercoastal Waterway, you don’t have to worry about becoming the next Titanic. You just point your bow toward the shore, “go aground” in soft mud, and wait for the Coast Guard to arrive.
