15 November 2015Ship Collision / AllisionOn November 16, 2015, at ~3:30 am, the vessel sustained hull damage after hitting the ice in Antarctica. The accident resulted in the cancellation of the next scheduled voyage. No injuries or any environmental damages/sea pollution were reported. The collision occurred near the South Shetland Islands. The ship was carrying a total of 167 passengers (24 different nationalities), all of which remained onboard and safe. They were all disembarked in Ushuaia Argentina on Dec 16. Temporary repairs were made en-route. However, as the ship had to enter drydock for final repairs and inspection, Quark Expeditions cancelled the next itinerary (departure Nov 17). Booked customers on the cancelled cruise were fully refunded. The company also covered (up to USD 500 pp) airfares not reimbursed by travel insurance. Passengers re-booking for 2015 were allocated to other Antarctica itineraries (including on longer than the cancelled one) at no additional cost. |
