Variety Cruises has been forced to cancel its summer 2017 Iceland programme on the 34-passenger Callisto -- one of the line's eight motor yachts -- due to damage caused to the ship as it refuelled. The ship was repositioning from Panama to Iceland when the incident occurred earlier this month in preparation for the June to September season. No passengers were onboard the ship at the time and despite numerous attempts to determine exactly when and where the incident took place, these details are still unclear. Variety Cruises has revealed that the ship returned to Panama for a dry dock assessment of the damage and to allow repairs to take place. In a statement, the line said: "Callisto suffered a grounding accident during refuelling on her empty (crew only) positioning voyage to Iceland from Panama, and the vessel's stabilizers were severely damaged.
