Cody Gray, 34, was arrested Saturday on charges of sexual battery and giving alcohol to a minor, an arrest report said.
According to the report, Gray and the 18-year-old were passengers on the cruise that left Sept. 6 from PortMiami and returned Saturday. The report didn’t name the ship or cruise company.
Early Saturday, the victim went to a club on the ship and had an alcoholic beverage on her own, and while she was there she met Gray, who gave her three more drinks, the report said.
She told Gray she didn’t want to have sex with him but she became drunk and the two walked to his cabin where they had sex, they report said.

The 18-year-old was unconscious after having sex, but her parents were found and directed to Gray’s cabin, the report said.
She told her parents and ship staff that she didn’t recall what happened in his cabin but said she didn’t consent to any sexual activity with him, the report said.
Ship staff detained Gray until they returned to PortMiami, where he was arrested, the report said.
Gray, of Maitland, Florida, was booked into jail, where records showed he was being held without bond. Attorney information wasn’t available.
