A casino cruise ship that once offered passengers gambling and entertainment excursions from Port Canaveral is sitting idle in a South Carolina shipyard amid a legal dispute over nearly $800,000 in unpaid bills.Victory Casino Cruises’ vessel remains out of service after a federal court issued a seizure warrant, according to the company and court documents. The dispute has left the ship’s return to service uncertain, while workers reportedly remain unpaid and customers are unable to book gambling cruises.Detyens Shipyards is suing Victory Casino Cruises, alleging the company owes more than $790,000 in outstanding charges, according to court documents.In a statement Friday, Victory Casino Cruises said it is disputing a portion of the charges but did not specify how much of the shipyard’s bill it considers valid.The dispute has disappointed some customers who had planned to return.“It was something to do for a couple hours. Get something to eat, you know, lose some money,” said Ken Gilsdo
