Struggling through the seas with a ship in distress is never an easy blow, but for the unfortunate passengers aboard a passenger ship in Wittmund, East Frisia, that's exactly their troublesome tale.
The vessel ran aground on a dyke following a catastrophic technical failure, leaving its rudder system in shambles, as communicated by the water police. The ship had set sail from Wittmund-Harlesiel harbor that fateful Wednesday morning, only to be met with an electrical failure mid-voyage.
Drifting aimlessly, the ship ultimately slammed into the coastal dyke, sending spectators in shock as the vessel came to a halt a mere kilometer away from home. A lone rescuer stepped forward, saving seven passengers from a troubled fate.
Left behind were the remaining eight passengers and three crew members, who were unable to break free from their watery cage thanks to the ebb tide. They were left stranded, waiting for the tide to turn. The moon eventually graced them with its high tide blessing, allowing for their grand return to Wittmund-Harlesiel harbor in the wee hours of the evening.
Despite the return, the ship's future remains uncertain. Officials have scheduled an inspection for Friday to assess any potential damages, with the ship barred from sailing until the green light signifies its seaworthiness.
