The shipbuilder Brodosplit recently signed a contract for the construction of a Polar Expedition Cruise Vessel. The ship will be built in the class LR PC6 (Polar Class 6) and this will be the first cruise ship in the world ever built in this class.
“By signing this agreement, Brodosplit is strongly progressing in the realization of its business plans and is determining its position as an inevitable European shipbuilding system that builds highly complex vessels which achieve high competitiveness,” said Tomislav Debeljak, CEO of the Brodosplit Shipyard.
The ship will host 196 passengers thanks to its 8 decks and 95 cabins, while 69 crew members will look after their needs. The ship will be 107,6 m long and 17,6 m wide. It will be driven by two engines with a total output of 4200 kW and will be able to reach a speed of 15 knots.
The company further said that the ship will be equipped with all necessary systems so passengers can visit the glaciers above and below the sea level enjoying the view at this unique biological and animal life from best perspective.
