Royal Caribbean published a video, depicting ‘Spectrum of the Seas’ having its azipods installed at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany. Each Azipod is 200 tons and takes 1.5 days to install.
A 400-ton low loader is positioning the azipods underneath the ship.
The azipods can provide ‘Spectrum of the Seas’ with 41 megawatts of propulsion power, while the ship’s propellers will be attached to the azipods in February, completing the propulsion system.
Spectrum of the Seas is the next new ship to join the Royal Caribbean fleet in 2019.
