I have justĀ receivedĀ a text message from a close friend of Mikey’s Cruise Blog that the fire team has been dispatched to the galley on deck 2 of Princess Cruise’s Sapphire Princess.
Here is the text from David Brooks ofĀ Brooks Cruise Services…
Call for the Fire Team to go to the Galley in 2 decksā¦.never a good thing to hearā¦
At least on the bow camera, I can see the mountains dead aheadā¦worst case we are close to land.
David Brooks
The Sapphire Princess is currently at sea sailing towards Yakutat Bay, Alaska. I will keep you updated as this story develops overnight.
7/9/12 – 10:45am Update: It has now been confirmed that the fire team was called to the galley after a small fire in the galley. There was a small “food fire” that was quickly contained and presented no danger to crew or guests on board. The only damage was to the toast that was burnt.
