100 passengers on board Spirit of Discovery cruise ship left injured
Saga’s Spirit of Discovery ran into trouble in “gale force winds and nine metre high waves” around midday before getting battered for the next 18 hours, according to unhappy customers now seeking compensation.
Of the 100 people injured, five sustained more serious injuries and needed treatment on the ship’s medical centre. They are due to go to hospital when Discovery docks at Portsmouth International Port.
The ship is due in this evening with people set to disembark tomorrow, though those seeking medical attention will be able to go to hospital this evening.
