Very informative! I used to work for the cruise industry and I was always amazed at how they got the ship to park so perfectly on those cement blocks or the old wooden pallets.

I think this ship has a DPS (Dynamic Positioning System) that automatically keeps the ship in position using the ship's thrusters. The anchors are more for emergency.

How do you paint under all of those blocks when your in dry dock?There are over 200 and the ship can't just be listed to remove a few at a time for painting under them.

There are multiple positions for the blocks. The next time the ship goes into dry dock, the keel blocks are in a new position, allowing for painting in the areas that were previously on blocks

No, he said the ship weight was 90,000 tons, which is about right for a cruiseship, they generally weight around 100,000 tons, except for the really big ones like the Symphony of the Seas owned by Royal Carribean, that class of ships weighs 200,000 tons.

+Dark Star Given that a 100,000t vessel has anchors weighing 20tons each, a 200,000 would need ones weighing 40ton (90,000lb). That looks about right. To weigh 90,000t the anchor would need a cube with a MINIMUM dimension of 11meters per side! BTW, At 40t, that IS a bad ass anchor!

9,000 ton anchors, what!?!?! I think he got his tons and pounds or kilos mixed up. Those anchors probably weigh 9,000 lbs or kilos, or maybe 20 tons at the most. Those chain links are maybe 300-400lbs each. Maybe if you added up the 2-3 anchors and all the chain, it would add up to 1,000 tons, but I doubt it would even be that high a figure. The biggest ship anchor ever made - that I know of - comes from the biggest ship ever made, the Seawise Giant. She was a supertanker of some 500,000 dwt, or about 5+ times the weight of this cruiseship. The Seawise Giant's anchors weighed 36 tons each.

Once upon a time captains wore magnificent uniforms and carried themselves with steely decorum. Now they just stand with their hands in their pockets, looking like rent-a-bus drivers. I suppose the days of mighty sea captains is long over. Look at the rats who were supposed to take care of thousands of souls on the Ocreanos and Costa Concordia.

Isn't really how they look that define how good and responsible they are, Captain Schettino instead was somebody that care much more about appareance then his crew and passengers, a big shame for Costa that wasn't able to select wisely their officers, I'm italian (luckily I haven't cruised with him, but I can tell you that I remember quite a lot of asshole actitude with some others male Italian captain in Costa Cruise). I travelled with captain Carol around 3 months, no complaint, frendly and sweet with her crew and one of the smoothest cruises I had around the mediterranean which is not always an easy sea in winter.

@@Videorebels I do not know whether you are being sarcastic or you are apologizing for the "Aural Assault". Just so there is no doubt as to where I stand, please read on. My use of the term MUZAK goes back to the mid 1950's when the term was actually applied to elevator music or airline terminal music. It was determined by properly qualified scientists to be calming and generally pleasant. The talentless generation of so called musicians reacted with scorn and the generations of mind destroying noise followed. There was no death penalty for the miss application of the word "music" to their overly loud and three second cycle repetitive trash, so they got away with calling it "music". I am in open rebellion to those talentless hacks, and, in revenge, call any form of their mind destroying noise - "MUZAK". Now, the talentless entertainment producers of every ilk chose to think it is necessary to include some degree of muzak in every advertisement or even every entertainment or information video that their damaged minds can produce. I guess they think it will make then the next Cecil B. DeMIlle?!?!? (Oh Well - They are talentless and mentally deficient after all!) I see this continuing trend of talentlessnes as a disease of the gene pool. Genetic cleansing is clearly required! So, I usually call a curse of God down on all responsible for such productions, so that they and their children catch bone cancer. It in currently incurable, it is extremely painful, and it has no palliative.
