Coast Guard investigating near-allision after cruise ship broke free
The U.S. Coast Guard in Alaska started investigating the near-allision between the 'Celebrity Edge' and the cruise ship 'Costa Luninosa' during the thunderstorm on June 16, with heavy rain, hail, and winds in the Port of Juneau, causing it to break free of its mooring lines at the privately operated AJ Dock.It stopped just short of the allision when the ship could be stabilized and dropped an anchor. Nobody was injured, and there didn’t appear to be any significant damage. The Coast Guard officials have received some video footage from ship guests and residents, who experienced an unusual weather event for the season, suddenly turning from blue skies to dark clouds and low visibility. The 'Celebrity Edge' left the port the same day en route to Ketchikan, where it arrived on June 20.
