The 87 meter long, 590 dwt passenger ship Serenissima went aground while entering Oban Bay near Argyll, Scotland.  The Serenissima was loaded with 61 passengers and 51 crew when it became stuck near the harbour on a sand bank known as Corran Ledge. The vessel contacted the RNLI who dispatched a lifeboat to the scene.   The RNLI lifeboat was able to refloat the vessel the following day.  The Serenissima proceeded into Oban Bay where it anchored and underwent inspection.   No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.
