Cruise ship CELEBRITY INFINITY collided with Berth 3 in Ketchikan, Alaska, at around 1415 LT June 3 while docking.

Berth 3 suffered serious damages and is presently inoperative, collision caused $2 million to $3 million in damage.

It is not clear what caused the collision, it is said vessel was approaching berth in a strange way, people on berth, including dockers and Celebrity employees, had to ran off.

There was a strong wind with gusts up to 20 meters/sec, but maybe there was something wrong with thrusters, or maneuvering mistake.

As of 0500 UTC June 4 vessel was docked in Ketchikan.

Cruise ship CELEBRITY INFINITY, IMO 9189421, GT 91000, built 2001, flag Malta, operator Celebrity Cruises, capacity 2170 passengers, crew 999.
