Coast Guard Searches for Cruise Ship Passenger Off Alaskan Coast Wednesday, September 23, 2009 ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A search has been launched in the waters of southeast Alaska and Canada for a 67-year-old woman reported missing from a cruise ship. The passenger, who hasn't been identified, was noticed missing Wednesday morning when she didn't leave the Sapphire Princess at the Port of Vancouver, British Columbia. The Princess Cruise liner departed Ketchikan on Monday on an Inside Passage cruise. The woman wasn't found during a search of the ship, and her personal belongings were in her state room. The U.S. Coast Guard has sent a helicopter and boats to search from Ketchikan 86 miles south to include Dixon Entrance, Tongass Narrows and the northern end of Hecate Strait. Canadian officials are searching from Vancouver 517 miles north to Hecate Strait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
