Cruise Ship Facts
You may be surprised (Like I was) of some of these interesting facts about Cruise ships.
Did you know that some of the best restaurants in the world are on Cruise Ships? They employ only the top chiefs and pay near $200,000 a year to head Chiefs. Here are some facts that will amaze you, whether you have been on a Cruise or not.
The Norwegian Star weighs 92,000 tons and has 810 miles of electric cable and 65 miles of pipe just within her haul alone. There are 835 exterior windows and 1,834 interior doors. The crew consists of 1,100 people coming from 64 different countries. With just over 2, 200 guests, that is a 2 to 1 guest crew ratio. (So service is pretty good)
She has 14 floors with 12 elevators, 4 swimming pools, 2 water slides, 10 Jacuzzis, 13 bars and lounges, 10 restaurants, basketball court, 2 golf driving nets, a movie theater, library, game room, casino, spa, complete fitness center, gift shop, internet service, photo department, art director, shore excursion desk, 24 hour room service (no extra charge) Live music in all lounges, Las Vegas shows nightly, sports bar and one Helicopter pad. .
The ship goes though 15,000 lbs of beef, 11,000 lbs of poultry, 10,000 lbs of sea food, 38,000 of vegetables, 30,000 lbs of fresh fruit, 15,000 lbs of flour, 35,000 eggs, in just one 7 day cruise!!!!!!!!!
The average weight a person gains that does not exercise on board is 10-15 lbs. in one week. For the record I worked out an hour a day and gained 8 lbs.
The engine puts out 79,800 HP at a top speed of 25 knots (not very fast)
