Norwegian Breakaway Suffers Minor Damage in Atlantic Storm

NCL is reporting that while on her way back from Bermuda to New York, strong winds ripped off a divider between two balconies in the forward part of the ship. Gusts were reportedly as high as 60 kts.

Official statement from NCL[via cruisecritic]:

“While returning from Bermuda to New York last night, Norwegian Breakaway encountered winds exceeding 50 knots. The high winds caused some of the outermost sections of the forward balcony dividers on Deck 8 to become dislodged. There were no injuries to guests or crew. We expect the affected balconies to be operational for the next cruise departing today.”
