They spread that rumor around so passengers don't pee off the
sides (especially from the upper decks).

I thought I read about some drunk who tried to pee off the
side, then fell
in. No one noticed and he ended up swimming. Didn't die though.
Maybe it was
an urban myth.

I believe it. Those cruise ships are floating zoos, and the
engineering
plant is even scarier to me.

Read 'Darker Than Amber' by John D. MacDonald... one of the
Travis McGee
series which is well worth while for anybody who likes
boats... very
plausible novel about a very profitable murder scheme,
disposing of people
by dropping them off cruise ships.
