THE CLASSIC OCEAN LINER Primarily used for transatlantic
crossings or world voyages. Mostly built before 1970
![Page 4: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
They’re sleek, streamlined and built to knife their way through open oceans.
Most are rather small by today’s cruise standards, but several vintage liners are as big as some of the larger contemporary ships.

THE CONTEMPORARY CRUISE SHIP
Tapered, knife-like hulls gave way to broader, boxier, still attractive vessels .
Built to accommodate uniformly sized staterooms and the numerous activity venues that the modern cruise vacation experience requires.
![Page 6: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
It is generally called these giant-sized ships, megaships.
They can accommodated 2,000 passengers or more and have 12 or more decks.
![Page 7: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SMALL SHIPS Most of which accommodate fewer
than 200 passengers. The cruise lines that rely on small ships
cruising often stress education, soft adventure, and/or luxury experiences.
![Page 8: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
MASTED SAILING SHIPS These vessels are technologically
sophisticated, with computers controlling sails.
The crew and even passengers volunteers rig the sails.
![Page 9: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The ships have motors, just in case the wind dies down.
People who sail on such ships want an experience rooted in other times, when billowing cloth and the romance of the sea were what sailing was all about.

RIVEBOATS It is also called paddle wheeler. Often modeled after the great
steamboats of the 19th century. These vessels permit passengers to
experience America’s great rivers.

Modern-style riverboats, too, are popular vehicles for experiencing such legendary rivers as the Rhine, the Danube, and the Nile,

BARGES Passenger barges are usually luxurious,
affording a pampered and leisurely discovery of the countryside.

FERRIES Usually we don’t think of a ferry trip as
a cruise. In Europe (especially in Northern
Europe), many ferries provide an overnight or even multiday, cruise like experience, with private staterooms, glitzy entertainment, and bountiful dining.
![Page 14: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
MULTIPURPOSE SHIPS Some vessels, like those that sail the
fjord-lines west coast of Norway, serve many functions.
They carry cargo, transport passengers between close-by villages and they also serve as cruise ships for leisure travelers too.
![Page 15: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
MISCELLANEOUS Many unusual form of water transportation
provide cruise like vacations. It’s possible for a leisure traveler to book
passage on freighter, The itineraries are unpredictable and the
entertainment are nonexistent.

SIZING SHIPS
![Page 19: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
HOW DOES THE INDUSTRY MEASURE ITS SHIPS?
By the number of staterooms By how many passengers the ship
accommodates By gross registered tonnage or GRT
![Page 20: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
GROSS REGISTERED TONNAGE (GRT)
GRT is determined by a formula that gauges the volume of the public spaces on ship.
It measure only measures only enclosed space available to passengers.
![Page 21: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
SIZE OF SHIPS GRT PAX
Very small Under10,000 GRT
Under 200 pax
Small 10,000-20,000 GRT
200-500 pax
Medium 20,000-50,000 GRT
500-1,200 pax
Large 50,000-70,000 GRT
1,200-2,000 pax
Megaship 70,000 GRT or more
2,000 pax or more
![Page 22: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ADANTAGES OF LARGER SHIPS
Offer many more facilities, activities, choices and options.
Are often more dramatic-looking Are able to serve a wider spectrum of guest types Easily accommodate groups Are generally quite stable in the water Offer a more intimate atmosphere Can sail into smaller places Permit easier embarkation and debarkation Make it simple for passengers to get to know the
ship and others onboard.
![Page 23: The anatomy of a cruise ship (report)](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042611/587b16501a28abb15c8b77df/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Space Ratio The space ratio number conveys the “space” or
“elbow room” each person will have. The space ratio of a vessel is determined by
dividing the GRT by passengers capacity.For example:
If a vessel has a 30,000 GRT and carry 1,000 passengers, its space ratio is 30.
Space Ratio= GRTpax = 30,000 1,000 = 30

A stateroom, also called a cabin, is to a ship what a guest room is to a hotel.

READING A DECK PLAN Deck plans are important. In brochures, color coding makes a deck
plan easy to read. Usually, the higher the deck in on the
ship, the higher the category and price. Deck plans often note certain special
stateroom circumstances, Deck plans are also posted aboard ship.

MISCELLANEOUS CONSIDERATIONS A ship’s “registry” usually has nothing to
do with where the line is headquartered. On some ships smoking is permitted
almost everywhere onboard. Where do ships go when they “retire”? Each year the Center for Disease Control
(CDC) co conduct about two unannounced inspections of any cruise vessel that carries 13 or more passengers and that call on US ports.
