MSC Lirica

During a cast-off maneuver in Civitavecchia, the MSC Lirica was pressed against the pier facilities on 2 November 2007 in strong winds and damaged in the bow area on the port side.

The ship was repaired in dry dock between 12 and 17 November 2007 and returned to Fort Lauderdale on 4 December.

According to MSC Cruises, the fire started in an empty fiberglass lifeboat and caused damage to the side of the ship, but not its interior, and there were no injuries.
