Officials say a cruise ship rescued four people from a disabled catamaran taking on water hundreds of miles off the coast of Bermuda. U.S. Coast Guard spokesperson Petty Officer 3rd Class Christine Bills says the catamaran's escape hatch blew a gasket, causing the vessel to take on water about 265 miles off the coast of Bermuda.
