What is the most shocking thing you've ever seen on a ship?

Whether it be how someone was dressed, how someone acted, what they did, etc.

A woman in her late 60's to early 70's dressed in a thin satin camisole tank top with NO bra and totally sheer pants (thankfully, yes to the underwear) who was dirty dancing by herself on the dance floor while her husband filmed her with his VHS recorder.

And this happened EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT.

I shudder to think what happened to those home movies.

We had a nice older man in the cabin next to us who was in a wheelchair. Being an early riser I always took my tea out on the deck to enjoy the sunrise. One morning I heard his balcony door open and heard his wheelchair coming towards the railing so when he said "Good morning" I leaned over the partition to say good morning to him and there he sat in his wheelchair - stark naked. Seems he needed his wife to help him dress and she was still sleeping and since he slept in his birthday suit he simply got into his chair and came out on the balcony. I enjoyed my sunrise for the rest of the cruise from further back on the balcony

Being docked across the pier from a small (3 deck) private charter gay (male) cruise. While in port they were all tanning naked on the top deck - which we were looking right down on - while others were making out, pole dancing and towel dancing. Our Captain announced his regret and disgust and asked any parents who had children onboard to please keep them on the other side of the ship while in port - he apologised and told us that it was out of his control as to which ships the Port Authorities dock alongside us.

On the old Westerdam on our last night we were setting our luggage out at the same time as our traveling companions, who were neighbors of ours at home and on the ship. We were talking when all of a sudden a totally buck naked man came out of his cabin and set his bags out. We all looked at each other in shock and asked "did we really see what we thought we'd seen"? Later I wondered what would have happened if his door had shut and locked him out!

A man on his honeymoon had to be taken off the ship about three days into a 10 day cruise due to a severe asthma attack. Throughout the rest of the cruise we kept seeing a single women just having a great time on her own, bumping and grinding with just anyone during the champagneaterfall party and so on. I mean she was living it up. You guessed it. It was his wife.
