P&O Cruises’ Iona lost a full day of its two-week itinerary after 16 cargo containers, many filled with bananas and other produce, toppled from a passing vessel in the Solent, prompting a precautionary delay in Southampton. Most containers later washed ashore in West Sussex, drawing curious onlookers and official warnings to report all wreck material under UK maritime law.
