In 1918, Canadian Pacific steamship Princess Sophia ran aground on Alaska's Vanderbilt reef. She sat there for two terrifying days before sinking in a raging snowstorm. Seventy-six years later, a cruise ship called the Star Princess was sailing in the same stretch of water -- and Alaska's worst maritime disaster nearly repeated itself.
