A cruise ship on its way to Ketchikan, Alaska, from Seattle had to make a U-turn after experiencing a power failure.
The Coast Guard said the ship lost electricity, steering and propulsion but regained power after a while.
Chopper 7 flew over the ship and it was halfway between Edmonds and Kingston.
A Port of Seattle spokesperson said the ship is operated by Celebrity Cruises. KIRO 7 found out it is the Celebrity Solstice.
The ship made its way back to port and was inspected before it left at 1 a.m.
The Coast Guard said the ship's engine had a misfire that caused the blackout.
