Fred. Olsen Cruises’ Black Watch collided with the jetty on the River Elbe at Brunsbüttel, Germany on 6th May. The ship was en route to Copenhagen from Hamburg as she approached the Kiel Canal locks and struck the jetty. The cruise ship demolished one dolphin with her bow, but the vessel suffered only minor scratches. No reports of injuries or pollution released. The Black Watch remained detained until the incident could be investigated, being allowed to proceed on her voyage later the same day.
