That's what I'm lead to believe, and it could be a bunch of different things. The turn may have just been the "tipping point", so to speak. Static ballasting is a primary suspect. A below deck leak is another. It could be a fuel tank pump, it could have hit some kind of obstruction.
And I haven't ruled out sabotage just yet. Cruise ships have been having a
hell of a lot of problems, lately. Between outbreaks of e-coli, fires, drunks, and people making bomb "jokes", it hasn't been a good two years for Carnival...not to even begin with other cruise lines.
I would seriously re-consider a cruise any time in the near future. Those companies have got some Quality Assurance issues to work out, and the market needs to help them right along with regards to it.
