There's also tecnology that creates a blanket of bubbles underneath the hull, thus reducing the drag and thereby the consumption of fuel for the ship. An example of this is AIDAnova.
Already in test and real use in some Princess ships. Air compressors at the bottom of the ship pump compressed air thru strategic holes in then hull to provide a more "slippery" hull surface, less drag, less fuels used.
Another great informative Video ! Congratulations Chris !! It was all very fascinating. Loved the bloopers at the end ! “ Long extension cords!?!” Really Chris , So Cheeky !!😏😂. 🇺🇸🇦🇺! ❤️MikeW.
I have been on both Coral and Island Princess. They still have the diesel electric engines. Sapphire princess also has the gas turbine engine. 🤔Would a nuclear powered ship need lights or would it just glow ion the dark?😏
If my cruise line starts banging on about Green Energy and being Carbon Neutral, I'm going to book with another cruise line! BTW, there is a reason LNG Tankers are designed the way they are, who would want to cruise on a floating bomb??!!
They probably need to stop building cruise ships until a 100% green source of power is implemented. We all need to make sacrifices now. I’ll miss cruising.
Just for fun when I read a comment I ask myself what my guess would be as to their occupation. For yours I don’t think I even need to guess. Your a comedian, Right?

Would you cruise on a Nuclear powered ship? There actually was one back in the 1960s - check it out @05:36!
No chance of smoke and soot going into the back pool like on my last cruise.
I thought Elon found you can get power wireless via Starlink? You know the power is just beemed down to all the ships! lol
Yes.
Yes ☢️
A fascinating review of a complex topic.
Thanks!
Always insightful - informative and presented clearly to grasp
Glad you think so!
Thanks for this information- another interesting and insightful video from you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Chris another factual and informative presentation. It will be interesting to see future development on how green technology can be utilise.
Love the bloopers at the end 😂😂😂

That’s fascinating

This is brilliant!

The intro has me imagining QM2 running a really long cable as if she was actually Great Eastern on telegraph cable laying duties 😂
Very interesting! I had no idea.
Do you know how large is a single diesel electric generator unit on a modern ship?
One of QE2’s MAN B&W diesel generators was around the size of a London Double Decker Bus. She had 9 of them!!
it's very useful for me
thank you sir

You’re right Coral & Island have a dual power plant with Wärtsilä 16V46C diesel engines and General Electric LM2500+ gas turbines.
Nuclear powered cruise ships would be a good idea. The Navy uses many nuclear plants in its ships/subs. The new small scale nuclear plants seem ideal.
Wait, you mean the captain doesn't plug in a bitch extension cord that's as long as the North Atlantic? Are you sure about this??????????
Yes no emissions means yes to cruising.

Oh my goodness what ignorance
If the power fails on a ship, the toilets don't flush.

These things are so obscene.
