12thman Posted July 20, 2019 Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 According to local news the Celebrity Solstice has lost the majority of its propulsion and is stuck in Puget Sound. The Coast Guard is responding to assist. It seems the ship can only go in a circle. Hoski, JLMoran and The Cruise Junkie 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12thman Posted July 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 Well it seems to be moving now according to what I see on cruisemapper. Seems to be coming back to Seattle. It was heading to Alaska, not good if that's true. The Cruise Junkie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12thman Posted July 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 Think it's trying to go to pier 89 or one of the piers there. Probably need some tugboats to help it get into the pier then. The Cruise Junkie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12thman Posted July 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 That's not good. Hope celebrity isn't planning on canceling the cruise. According to the news story I watched the ship was just making circles in Puget Sound for more than an hour. Maybe the Coast Guard wants to make an inspection of the ship since the ship called for help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
