It's not every night the largest cruise ship that visits Wellington gets stranded in the Capital's outer harbour just inside the heads, but that's exactly what happened tonight.
Ovation of the Seas - which is the fourth largest cruise ship in the world- stopped around 7.30 tonight just off Steeple Rock, unable to move.
Wellington Harbourmaster, Grant Nalder, shares the back story with Karyn.
