A Mile Long Cruise Ship
The ship would take three years to circumnavigate the planet and feature a runway on top for its fleet of commuter aircraft.
A mile long cruise ship. It fits typical vacation timeframes. It was so named because of the free international lifestyle facilitated by a mobile ocean colony though the project would not be a conventional ship but rather a series of linked barges. Freedom Cruise Line International is proposing the largest vessel in maritime history.
And then I clicked the Start button on my Garmin to begin what I hoped would be a 100 mile run on the deck of the ship. Someone has posted that the ship is 892 feet long. The average cruise ship cruising speed is about 20 knots per hour.
The European cruise ship the Norwegian Spirit sits right in between the small-medium range in size at just over 880 ft. Lesson learned there are security cameras all over the ship you may not be in as private place as you think. It will be 4500 feet long as wide as 2 12 football fields and 350 feet high.
Mile long ships return in force in X Rebirth where the humble Space Trucker trading ships have been largely replaced by massive freighters that operate independently of the Highway system. The car stops by Ports O Call and the LA Maritime Museum. A nautical mile is a bit longer than a statute or land-measured mile.
A knot is a form of measurement that equals one nautical mile. Even if the restaurant is at the stern the entrance is closer than that. A large percentage of cruise itineraries are like this.
Examples of this distance include. Two week longer cruises. Some destinations and itineraries just take more time.
