"very tenuous situation"

http://travel.usatoday.com/cruises/post/2010/07/report-small-ship-line-cruise-west-seeking-capital-to-shore-up-finances/100529/1

We plan to leave home in about 5 weeks for what we planned as our only big vacation this year. Today we read the words above in a quote from Dick West, Cruise West Chairman in financial news regarding his company, and our next cruise line. Can you say Renaissance flashback?! So, another damper on our enthusiasm after our little rush of getting our cruise documents. It seems like every time we find a cruise line that we like or think we would like, it goes under! It seems like a miracle that we got 3 cruises on RSSC without them actually going under. So, hopefully Cruise West will go as RSSC has and come out strong. Fingers crossed!
