The passenger who went overboard off the world’s largest cruise ship<\/a> on Tuesday has been identified by his family as 19-year-old Sigmund Ropich.<\/p>\n

He went overboard from Royal Caribbean’s Wonder of the Seas off the coast of Cuba during a seven-day cruise that left from Port Canaveral, Florida, according to U.S. officials and a company spokesperson.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Royal Caribbean told Fox News Digital that the ship’s crew immediately began a search for the missing person and was working with local authorities.<\/p>\n

The individual who went overboard has been identified as 19-year-old Sigmund Ropich, a family member told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

Savannah Ropich told Fox News Digital that she has been in touch with the U.S. Embassy in Cuba, which has been working with the Cuban Embassy.<\/p>\n

Ropich said Cuban officials<\/a> are no longer searching at sea, and have moved the search to coast and land.<\/p>\n

A Coast Guard spokesperson told Fox News Digital that the incident happened over Cuban territorial seas, and they are not conducting search and rescue efforts.<\/p>\n

Since the teenager is a U.S. citizen, the Coast Guard will meet the cruise ship when it arrives back in the country to conduct an investigation.<\/p>\n

Ropich said her brother was on the cruise on vacation with his best friends, co-worker, and co-worker’s family.<\/p>\n

“Sig is a great kid. Never gets in trouble and never caused trouble. Very intelligent, got A’s in Calculus\/Physics\/Government in high school with no effort. He is a college student as well and works too. He is a kind, reserved and humble kid who also loves to make people laugh,” she said. “I always call him the \u2018Cool, Calm and Collected\u2019 sibling.”<\/p>\n

“We actually have report of a man overboard. We have slowed the ship down. We have turned around and we are heading back to the position that we had at that time. We will start a search and rescue operations,” an employee can be heard saying through the cruise’s PA system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
