A 20-30 tonnes if not more, 5+ meters by 2-3 meters deep ice piece is not quite a needle but lets get back to praying or maybe something more fun. (I’m joking, let them figure it out, the garbage will probably be more and more in the future. The damn icebergs will be replaced by junk.) Now, how many cruises NCL will cancel until Sun is patched and back with guests? 2-3-5? Any bids? 🙂

What can we say, good thing we have AI that can identify when we smile in the photos on our phones but we pray to not hit an underwater object riding a 800 million bucks brightly lit mettalic case. Btw, in that video that is running around, that piece of ice looks alot longer than 4-5 meters a growler is classified. Probably even deeper than 1-2 meters, so this ship is more impressive if so.

You guys are killing it, everybody loves Moby Dick and waves so not much to go on that. We all hope these new ships are designed to withstand a solid hit below water level, forget about the goddamn 4D cinema, safety is more important. Hopefully nothing worst is going to happen with the next crash into underwater obstacles. Maybe limit access to these areas to those beasts that can crush ice and such?! My wife is not going to be happy when I tell her about this news..

I understand that radar cannot pick up these small growlers but why does the ship not have some kind of sonar to see underwater in front of the ship? If not a iceberg maybe some other garbage or a fallen shipping container that can damage the ship. This really affects the industry and the confidence in the cruise ships. After Titanic advanced capability to see in front of the ship even in fog and bad weather i thought was mandatory, but it seems i was on the wrong.

wrong post, sorry
