Cruise Ship During Storm

The impact of massive waves that struck a cruise ship during a storm off New Zealand have been revealed by CCTV footage posted on the internet.

Pacific Sun Cruise liner, carrying 1732 passengers and 671 crew, was caught in a severe storm on July 30, 2008, encountering seven-metre swells and 50 knot winds.

Passengers who were aboard the journey were offered a 25 per cent reduction in the cost of a future cruise.
