TL;DR Summary

A Norwegian cruise ship, MS Maud, carrying 400 passengers and crew is being towed back to Germany after being hit by a 'rogue wave' during a storm in the North Sea. The wave shattered windows on the bridge and caused a power outage, but the ship's main engine is still functioning. The ship's 266 passengers and 131 crew members are safe, and there have been no serious injuries reported. The vessel is being towed to Bremerhafen, Germany for disembarkation. This incident comes six weeks after another cruise ship, the Spirit of Discovery, was battered by a storm in the Bay of Biscay.
