Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Discovery-Princess

On April 1, 2025, at approximately 5 p.m., the 'Discovery Princess', an impressive cruise vessel, became untethered from its moorings at San Francisco's Pier 27 due to powerful winds reaching speeds of 29 mph. The severe weather not only dislodged the ship but also caused the gangway connecting the vessel to the dock to detach. In a dramatic turn of events, three stern cables snapped, prompting the ship to drift dangerously towards Pier 23. Promptly responding to the situation, the crew took decisive action; they released a stronger stern line to stabilize the ship against the wind and engaged the engines to steer it back to its docking position. Fortunately, all onboard, including passengers and crew, remained unharmed with no injuries reported. The 'Discovery Princess' had made its approach to San Francisco the previous morning, March 31, as part of a week-long round trip adventure originating from Los Angeles. The vessel completed its scheduled itinerary, departing from San Francisco at 10 p.m. as planned.
