Those are lifeboat canisters. They inflate either manually or automatically and are sealed in an inert gas environment until they are used or sent for periodic inspections at the manufacturer. You can see them on most modern warships.
055 Large Destroyer Thread II
- Thread starter Blitzo
- Start date
Finally China has launch the 2nd large cruise ship.
I was always wondering why tf are we able to churn out Type 055s like nothing but never a Royal Carribean cruise ship. And it's not like the market is not there, many people love to cruise as well.
Most large cruise ships right now are still made in Europe funnily enough despite the dominance of Asian shipyards. This is still baffling me.
Hope something bigger than the Icon of the Seas are now being built here, need to stop using the the shitty design of the Carnival ships, which imo are inferior and less advanced.
P.s. dont ask me why I post here, theres zero cruise thread on this whole site apparently.
