Dundas Bay, Alaska.
1. A small cruise liner is hard aground on a large rock in Dundas Bay which is on the west side of Glacier Bay, Alaska at approximately 58? 26' N and 136?30' W. The vessel is reported to be in stable condition on the rock at low tide with a 40 degree port list and down 30 degrees at the stern. The ship has a 5 inch hole in the hull and there is minor sheening from flooding of the engine room, but the fuel tank with 4,200 gallons of diesel fuel appears to be holding. There is double booming around the vessel and protective booming around local sensitive areas. USCG district 17. Keyword: boom, potential spill.
2. COMMODITY: DIESEL AND ENGINE ROOM SLOPS. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 4200 GALLONS.
3. POSITION 58.433N 136.500W. NOAA INCIDENTNEWS 7406: https://incidentnews.noaa.gov/incident/7406

Not for navigation. The name is read automatically from official navigational warnings; a common name can belong to more than one ship, and a message may describe work the vessel is doing (cable, survey) rather than something that happened to it. Mariners must use official NAVAREA broadcasts and their national MSI service.
