Stranded Boaters Rescued By Disney Cruise Ship

A group of boaters stranded at sea were rescued by Disney's newest cruise ship. It happened Sunday, several hundred miles off the coast of Bermuda.  A catamaran carrying four people blew a gasket and began taking on water. The cruise ship Disney Treasure responded to a distress call and sent out a lifeboat to rescue the passengers. The Treasure is not yet in service - it was traveling from the Netherlands to Port Canaveral, Florida, where she'll launch her maiden voyage next month. Source: AP, Cruisehive
