CNN —A Princess Cruises ship crashed into a pier in San Francisco as it was preparing to dock after a 10-day Alaskan cruise, officials said. The 113,561-ton Ruby Princess “made unexpected contact with the dock at Pier 27” at the port of San Francisco Thursday morning, Princess Cruises said in a statement obtained by CNN. Princess Cruises said it was still planning to board passengers onto the Ruby Princess, but it was not clear when the ship would leave for Alaska. KGO“I noticed we were spinning pretty quick, to be that close to the dock,” Zasso told CNN affiliate KGO. The 951-foot-long Ruby Princess was refurbished in 2018, according to Princess Cruises.
