A Norwegian Cruise Line ship, the Norwegian Dawn, ran aground in a reef off Bermuda after temporarily losing power.

A Norwegian Cruise Line ship carrying 2, 675 passengers and 1, 062 crew members ran aground as the ship departed for Boston from King’s Wharf in Bermuda at 5 p.m. on Tuesday evening.”

Shortly after leaving Bermuda, the cruise ship lost power. Problems with the ship’s electricity-producing generators shut down the ship’s electric motors, which in turn affected the ship’s propulsion. This caused the cruise ship to run aground in a reef only several kilometers from King’s Wharf.

Norwegian Cruise Line said that all passengers and crew are safe. Tug boats responding to the incident later that night pulled the ship out of the reef and the ship is now anchored nearby until morning.

Why wasn't the anchor dropped to prevent drifting. A small factor that may have prevented this incident.
