The Carnival Imagination entered service for Carnival in 1995 and was built in the Kvaerner Masa-Yards in Finland. When the Carnival Inspiration entered service, it was the 5th ship out of 8 in Carnival's Fantasy class.
Below you will find some links that show the ship being run-aground. Some of these videos have sound and some do not. A few of these videos have advertisements that I had to watch before being able to view the video because You-Tube would not let me skip the ads. I do not own these videos and am not responsible for any of the content these videos contain. Please note, by clicking the video links you will be taken to You-Tube.

Video #3 - Check out this video for a view of the ship being run-aground from the shore as well as video taken from the ship's navigational bridge as the ship made its way to the shore. Some of the noise from the Carnival Imagination hitting the already beached Carnival Fantasy can be heard in this video as the ship is nearly at shore.
