BREVARD COUNTY • PORT CANAVERAL, FLORIDA (WFTV) – Passengers on a Carnival cruise ship that had just left Port Canaveral got quite a scare when the ship suddenly started tilting.

The ship had just left Port Canaveral for a five-day journey to the Caribbean when Carnival said an electrical switchboard malfunctioned Sunday night, impacting the ship’s fin stabilizers.

Video from passengers shows dishes scattered across the floor as the ship began to list.

Tony and Kyla Williams, who live in the Atlanta area, were on board when it happened. They said they’ve been on many cruises, but none like this.

“This was very much the ship rolling to one side and everything falling down,” said Kyla Williams. “It was just something you’ll never forget.”
