A brand-new Disney cruise ship rushed to the aid of a catamaran taking on water in the Atlantic on Sunday and plucked four people to safety, authorities said. The Disney Treasure responded, saying it was 80 miles from Serenity, before heading to the catamaran and arriving between 1 p.m. and 1:45 p.m., according to the Coast Guard. A life boat from the cruise ship Treasure heads toward a disabled Catamaran. It appeared Disney Treasure was only recently constructed and headed to its future home in Port Canaveral, Florida, when she was unexpectedly called to duty. The Disney Treasure "journeys across the Atlantic Ocean ... in preparation for its inaugural season this December," according to a Disney blog posting on Friday.

Ulyssia ResidencesUlyssia doesn't have a ship yet, and the vessel acquisition process has become an infamously difficult challenge for similar startups. Residential cruise companies can either build a new ship (as Ulyssia plans to) or refurbish an older used vessel. Life at Sea Cruises intended to purchase a used vessel for its three-year sailing. Villa Vie successfully purchased a more-than-30-year-old vessel for its never-ending cruise, which could set sail in the coming days. However, its launch has already been delayed four months amid issues like the ship's aging rudder stocks and certifications.
