Norwegian Epic hits pier in San Juan

I'm sure most of you have heard about Norwegian Epic hitting parts of the pier in San Juan last week.  The ship was apparently having engine issues reducing their maneuverability which, combined with high winds in San Juan, caused this minor incident.

In case you haven't seen it yet, here is the video.


Obviously, those moorings are meant to "break away" rather than punch a hole in the ship which would be much worse.  The ship did suffer some minor damage, but nothing too severe.  Embarrassing for NCL but at least no one was injured.
