Could this be the real reason our next three ports of call are all cancelled? They are worried about hull integrity and taking the fastest, calmest route to a safe harbor??

May 30 The Captain of the Saturn just notified us of cancellation of both ports in Greenland today and tomorrow and the port in Newfoundland! We already missed the first two ports in Iceland. Beyond disappointing to miss more than half the ports. No mention of any damage. We were told that ice pilots onboard say ice floats made it necessary to largely alter the course!
