It is documented that the Titanic's distress call was picked up by The Mount temple, Frankfurt, Carpathia, Prinz Adalbert and the Titanic's sister ship the Olympic. The ship that responded (was nearest) was the Carpathia, and this picked up the survivors.
a ship sinker
On February 16th, 1986 the Russian cruise ship Mikhail Lermontov ran aground not at the entrance to Wellington Harbour but in the Marlborough Sounds on the opposite side of Cook Strait from Wellington.
They pretty much didn't, which was part of the problem. The closest ship didn't have a wireless operator on duty (just before going to bed, he had attempted to warn the Titanic by radio about ice ahead, and had been told to "shut up" since the Titanic's wireless operator was busy), and the ships that did pick up the distress call were too far away to arrive in time (the nearest ship that responded to the distress call was almost 60 miles away... about four hours travel time).
They didn't ignore the Titanic. I'm not sure about the story of the Carpathia, but my ancestor Charles Sidney Hill's ship, the HMS Grenada, was near the ship as it was sinking. They didn't have their radio on, so they didn't receive the distress signal.

The ship, forced in by a storm, ran aground on a small island.
"The ship ran aground just of the coast of NewFoundland" is one you could use.

The Costa Concordia
It is what happens to a ship when it sales into water that is shallower than its keel depth. It gets stuck on the bottum and is no longer afloat - it is aground.
SOS means Save Our Ship, which is a distress signal used obviously by ships in distress at the ocean.
