Having sailed those waters, I know how those bergie bits (small icebergs) can creep up on you.
If I ran that cruise ship line, I think I'd have the crews spend a little more time in Damage Control training. If they can't control flooding from a hole "the size of a fist", they don't belong on a Laughlin casino shuttle boat, much less a passenger liner in the most treacherous waters on the planet.

Seriously, stuff a towel in it and weld a box over it. I could do that and I cant even weld.

I heard the size of a fist comment on CNN......I would think their pumps could easily handle that....:confused:

Some peeps believe everything reported by CNN :idea: :)
"Adventures of Toronto, which owned the vessel, initially described the damage as a "fist-sized hole," but the Argentine navy later said it observed "significant" damage to the hull"
