News that came out this morning.... about 45 minutes ago.

As they cancelled this week's cruise after everyone had boarded, my guess is that a week to make the repairs necessary should put us back on schedule for a normal departure (the boat is not coming in from anywhere to be late). Also, if they were planning on us going out with a slowed down vessel and then make final repairs when it gets back to port, everything should be just fine with the vessel not moving and being repaired over a 7 day period.

On a good note, this only affected the speed of the vessel and not any of the other functions, such as A/C, electricity, water and sewage. All things that are really worse than a slow moving boat.

We will try to keep everyone informed over the next few days about any news on the cruise.
