MONA LISA ON THE SAND BANK

On Sunday 4th May the Greek owned, German chartered cruise ship MONA LISA run aground on a sandbank following human error off the Latvian coast while cruising in the Baltic with 650 German passengers.
Initial efforts to free the ship failed and on 5 May the passengers and 11 crew members were evacuated by the Latvian Navy. All ballast and fuel had to be pumped out and it was only on the 7th May that the MONA LISA was taken from the sand bank. The accident was due to human error.
