About 2225 on June 10, 1995, the Panamanian passenger ship Royal Majesty grounded on Rose and Crown Shoal about 10 miles east of Nantucket Island, Massachusetts. The vessel, with 1,509 persons on board, was en route from St. George's, Bermuda, to Boston, Massachusetts. Initial attempts to free the vessel were unsuccessful. Deteriorating weather and sea conditions prevented the evacuation of passengers and crewmembers from the vessel.
