Batten down the hatches and strap on your hard hat as we join the determined crew hauling a leaking luxury liner out of the water. Can they fix this majestic vessel? The 856-foot long cruise ship has just about the biggest problem a ship can face: she's taking in incredible amounts of water-and no one knows exactly what's leaking. In this episode of World's Toughest Fixes, master rigger Sean Riley heads to San Francisco Bay where hundreds of workers have just 15 days to tear this mega ship apart, dive into the belly of the beast, and find the pesky leak. They'll have to work around the clock to fix it because in just two weeks, 2,000 new guests who've paid for the vacation of a lifetime will expect to set sail. Do they have what it takes to safely transmit all that human cargo? A National Geographic Production.
