Just now breaking. Confirmed by the Bermuda Ports Authority. Hit a reef.

CNN broke it too, just now.

Hey, I know what will be fun! Let’s get in a cramped, floating, warm, moist Petri Dish with a few thousand other people and their waste and refuse. And run into a reef!

from another article-
CEO Frank Del Rio said a flight with Stuart and a technical team arrived in Bermuda at about 2 a.m.

Del Rio said the ship had a temporary malfunction of its steering system upon leaving the harbor. .He said the captain, using bow thrusters and other means, was able to maneuver the bow of the ship onto a “limestone plateau.”

This sounds like a narrative right out of the Obama Playbook. -Tom
