Go karts on a ship...

[KarlChilders]

anyone know if they use electric carts? Otherwise, it seems like the noise would carry all over the ship and be pretty annoying. The Joy has one also, right? Anyone with experience?

They are electric according to NCL's promotional materials.

a google search answered my own question..... they are electric

Thanks, I found the info as well after posting.

Has anyone seen the minimum age requirement is for these?

I am not excited about this feature. Feels like an amusement park on the water. I will definitely avoid this ship.

Is it free or cost ?

I'm looking forward to trying them out on the inaugural voyage. May have to drag my husband, though

Considering it will be based in China that won't be hard to do. A lot of people will be avoiding this ship.

The bliss will be based in alaska and miami.

from what i seen on previous posts, the carts are limited to about 25-30mph. it wont be that fast compare to regular go karts you find at other places.

According to the website, the go karts are quiet, but have an engine sound piped into the headrest.

Nope. OP said "The Joy has one also"... which means they are NOT talking about Joy. Geez.

You're going to avoid this ship based on one feature that you don't have to use? That's kinda odd.

Yep, ya got me on that one.

It's all good :)

No...reading and/or posting on a thread about a feature on a ship that one intends to avoid is kinda odd.

 

Unless there is some new definition for "avoid" that I'm not aware of yet.

Has it been confirmed that Bliss will have the go cart track?

[sid_9169]

Although the go kart track is the thing I'm LEAST excited about, the other unique features of the Bliss more than make up for it... It is basically taking the best features from all of the NCL ships and combining them into one. I am sooo looking forward to sailing her in 474 more days...

yes, read the press release from yesterday (see the sticky post on top of this form)

Any idea if they will have any water slides?
