MS Westerdam was forced to turn back to Seattle and cancels the rest of the cruise after  fire broke in the ship boiler room, officials said. Holland America brought the ship back "out of an abundance of caution and in cooperation with the U.S. Coast Guard," a company statement said.

Holland America said that there were no injuries among the passengers and crew of the Westerdam from Saturday's fire.

"A small fire in one of the boiler rooms" that occurred after the vessel set sail was quickly extinguished, the company said.

Public Relations Vice President Sally Andrews said early Sunday that after the fire the Coast Guard inspected the ship and cleared it to sail again.

The Seattle Times reported that the flames broke out around 5 p.m. PDT as the vessel was in Puget Sound near Kingston, according to Coast Guard petty officer George Degener. The crew extinguished the fire, but a while later it restarted.

A combination of high-pressure mist and crew members with hoses extinguished the fire. The city of Seattle dispatched a fireboat, and a few units to the Pier 91 cruise terminal, as a precaution.
