What does it mean for a ship to be grounded?

Ship grounding means that its hull has wandered or strayed into waters too shallow, and has effectively grounded (bottomed) itself on the bottom of the waterway in which they're navigating, so that it can no longer float. Grounding usually happens near shore, when ships are navigating to and from port. It does happen infrequently with submarines as well - there have been occasions where submerged boats have collided with underground mountains/obstacles that were uncharted, or the boat was off-course. In pretty much 99% of all grounding cases, the Captain of the vessel, its Navigator, and Executive Officer are usually relieved of duty. It is considered one of the most egregious examples of maritime incompetence and irresponsibility, unless there are extreme mitigating circumstances (e.g., you were blown off course and into shallow water by a hurricane).
