Water slides contain a relatively small volume of water. The significant volume of water and the associated weight is down low, at the pool at...
How many of them are located on the crows nest of the vessel?
Water doesn't weigh much but there is quite a lot of it in a swimming pool. A small pool, say 10' x 20' x 5' is 62,400 lbs of water. Putting...
I would be very surprised if those things existed for this design. It strikes me as a designer working up some 3D renderings with no engineering...
It wouldn't be the first ship to be built that capsized soon after. I'd love to see what happens with that upper deck pool if the vessel was in...
A stateroom? Maybe. A swimming pool? No. Maybe it has a 80 ft lead keel. I also like how there appears to be no way to have an elevator...
