While the circumstances were completely different from those on the Carnival Splendor, the problem encountered by the cruise ship Clelia II is apparently another example of a ship’s engines being impacted by damage to electrical control systems.  The Clelia II‘s bridge was reported to be damaged by a large wave which broke the bridge windows and damaged the ship’s controls, cutting power to one engine.
