I think bigger ships like cruise ships could benefit from having solar arrays on them since they have the extra surface area that could be used for solar power generation.

Yeah, there was a solar yacht that went around the world back in 2012. As you scale them up, the surface area on boats available for PV increases faster than the power requirements to move it. The bigger the better, really. It's slightly absurd cargo container ships don't bother with solar.
