Last week it was reported that the incident was caused by “a steering problem” Today Princess Cruises announced the incident was caused by human error.

The unspoken inverse: We want to unequivocally emphasize that did allow unsafe personnel to operate an otherwise safe ship. The incident has demonstrated how quickly bloggers opine. Google "princess cruise" + blog + "july 18" and 10,500 results return. Make that 10,501. |
