What’s Happening:
- The newest ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet, the Disney Treasure, has played a key role in the rescue of some passengers aboard a stranded catamaran near Bermuda.
- The new Disney ship, currently crossing the Atlantic Ocean on the way to its home port in Port Canaveral, Florida, responded to a broadcast from the Coast Guard, after the passengers aboard the 50-foot catamaran issued a distress call when their boat started taking on water about 230 miles off the coast of Bermuda.
