Trollfjord accident (no injuries, but ship disabled?)

Apparently the Hurtigruten Trollfjord had an unfortunate encounter with a dock, and it looks a bit like there is an "open jaw" in the bow (just a bit like a shark's jaw, actually).

There were no injuries, fortunately (or none that I saw reported).

Does anyone know what the repair schedule will be, or which cruises will be affected in the near future?

Thank goodness no one was injured!

According to a Tromso newspaper, the ship is due to resume sailing April 9th. Don't know how accurate this will be.

Apparently the Trollfjord is now sailing on April 12th.

(Is that the next "regular" sailing?)

Current report is that the Trollfjord is approaching Bergen, and will be ready for boarding tomorrow.

Good news for those planning a nice trip!

Enjoy :)
