From Times Wire Reports

A cruise ship that rolled suddenly to one side will depart on a new voyage this weekend, despite the mystery over what caused the accident off the Florida coast that threw passengers, TV sets and other objects against the deck and walls, seriously injuring 20 people.

The Crown Princess left Florida for New York, where it was scheduled to depart for another Caribbean trip. Coast Guard and National Transportation Safety Board investigators planned to go along, officials said.

The Crown Princess rolled 15 degrees to its right Tuesday about 12 miles off Port Canaveral. The ship came back upright after 30 to 40 seconds, passengers said. It then returned to port.
