History
AI-generated

Crown Princess is a Crown-class cruise ship that entered service with Princess Cruises and has operated seasonal routes across the Caribbean, Mediterranean, Alaska, and Northern Europe. The ship gained notoriety when a listing incident occurred in July 2006 shortly after departure from Port Canaveral, which the National Transportation Safety Board determined was caused by the second officer disengaging the automatic steering system and making manual control inputs that caused the vessel to list severely to starboard.
