WHAT HAPPENED TO PRIDE OF AMERICA?

[SASSYSC]

Does anybody know what happened to Pride of America? It was supposed to start sailing from Hawaii but I see now that Pride of Aloha is taking it's place and no rooms are available on Pride of Aloha until next May.

What's the deal?

The Pride of America sank in the shipyard in Germany in mid-January. It was submerged for several weeks, and will require considerable repairs before it is "good to go". We were originally on the June 20 repo. We will now be sailing on the Pride of Aloha.

Will you be joining us? We don't have anyone from South Carolina yet! [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
