The damage to the ship is now known as the Carnival Glory Hole.

In this age of radar, computers and GPS technology, why would any ships ever collide?

And the entire Sea Shepherd crew was triggered, even though they were two oceans away.

I spent many years in the cruise business, probably four or five solid years of my life was at sea (working).
Those ships were anchored at Cozumel island, and they stupidly usually only anchor at one end (the bow (front) or stern (back). Then the wind comes along and these ships are just like big sails that can twist & turn freely in the breeze. Of course all the weight is below water and the upper structure is thin steel and glass - so when they hit each other there is not much resistance to doing a fair amount of damage. Most of the time the bridge officers have radar and collision alarms armed & ready, so someone either fell asleep or was otherwise occupied.
These ships will probably go to Mobile AB or maybe Nassau for repairs. The affected room was the dining room and it was not crowded, fortunately.

From the article about the captain of the ship,
the Carnival Glory. He's talking abut previous duty
on ships he's captained.
Captain Fazio:
"Whereas a container ship will stay in port sometimes
less than a day, these ships would sometimes
be in the African ports that they visited
for 15 days while the cargo was unloaded." Fifteen days to unload a ship in Africa.
I'm not surprised.
