Regatta and propulsion problems

Can anyone update us on the Regatta engine problems I read that the ship had the trustees replaced in Miami on May 6th. But she is still either missing ports or arriving late quite often. I noticed Regatta left San Francisco 24 hours late yesterday and is missing a port again today. Bit worried about our Summer cruise to Alaska. Is there anyone on board that could help with this issue - it would be appreciated.

According to Oceania, there is no engine/propulsion problem. Regatta's arrival in San Francisco was a combination of rough seas and naval action off LA, fleet week??? That delay in arrival in Sf caused the late departure and Astoria stop was canceled. O also advised sea conditions north of SF further delayed departure.

Seas can be quite rough in those areas. Trust me. I was on Regatta out of SF heading to Alaska a few years ago. A fabulous cruise but rough seas were really tough. I would in the future only leave out of Vancouver. It all makes sense...
