I hear everyone that is talking about being over weight because of old standards that are used for calculating what a boat/ship can hold. However I do not believe that has a single thing to do with this mishap as this cruise was made up of all elderly people some of which were in wheelchairs. One does not find many of the elderly over the 140 mark.
