A Cruise Ship In Heavy Seas

I might feel safer in those seas in my Montauk than in that barge.

A cruise ship in heavy seas. Tales have been heard about sailors harrowing experience being battered by the huge. Laymen claim they arent and that ocean liners were safer but real-world experience and naval architecture show that a cruise ship can roll to almost 60-degrees before its in danger of capsizing and can ride out 50-foot seas without danger of sinking. Captain Herman Zini of Royal Caribbeans Allure of the Seas noted.

In the end we see a ship is sunk by the power of the waves. The 290-foot Clelia II was crossing the Drake Passage when it sailed into heavy weather Dec. When the ships are full they tend to sail around heavy weather.

The bow front of a ship can be uncomfortable for some people because in heavy seas there can be a lot of vertical motion. Heavy seas battered an Antarctic cruise ship for 36 hours shattering a bridge window knocking out electronic equipment and causing a minor injury to a crewmember. Their main problem would be that the big cruise ships are all very tall and narrow and slab-sided fundamentally designed to roll in a heavy sea.

The thickness of the hull at the waterline is much thicker than in the upper levels. Either they have small keel surfaces or they are able to pull the keel inside the ship because the draught in my city port is fairly shallow and yet they were able to get well inside the harbor. Todays video on five cruise ships in heavy se.

Going on a cruise is a great way to spend a family vacation but you better hope you dont get hit by a storm. Light as a feather. There is no word from the cruise line how many passengers were sick from the rough seas.

No water left in pool. An interesting video with situations that few expect. 36--48 hours of fun.
