Embodiment Construction

[0017] in such as figure 1 In the prior art cruise ship shown, the hull section 1' has a superstructure 2' on top of it, and said superstructure is itself divided in its lower part into two distinct sections, which include cabins 3'. Between the hull part 1' and the superstructure 2' there is an area 5' comprising several decks with so-called public spaces. Between the lower parts of the superstructure there are also several storey-high spaces, the so-called promenades, which also include public spaces such as restaurants, shops, etc. on deck. Most of the external cabins in the superstructure and some of the cabins open to the promenade have balconies or external windows. There are also many public spaces 4' on top of the superstructure 2', such as restaurants, bars, swimming pools, sun decks, etc. This greatly limits the number of available cabin decks.

Abstract

A floating structure, vessel, specifically a single hull cruise vessel, or the like, having an elongated hull part (1) and, on top of it, at least one multi-level superstructure (2a, 2b) containing the majority of passenger accommodations. The edges of the hull part (1) are fitted with two separate superstructures (2a, 2b) extending in the longitudinal direction of the vessel and dimensioned in the lateral direction so that a substantially open free space remains in between, said space being wider (g) than the combined width (a + b) of the superstructures (2a, 2b) excluding any balcony structures associated with accommodations. In addition that a majority, preferably at least 60%, of the accommodations within the superstructure (2a, 2b) comprises cabins (3) whose width (e), in other words their dimension in the longitudinal direction of the vessel, is at least some 50% of their length (f).

Description

technical field [0001] According to the preamble of claim 1, the object of the invention is a floating structure, ship, in particular a monohull cruise liner or similar structure, having an elongated hull section and at least one on top of which contains most of the cabin passenger transport equipment multi-layer superstructure. Background technique [0002] It is known from the prior art that the number of cabins with windows or balconies is maximized by making their design as narrow as possible. When narrow cabins come into play, ships can contain more cabins without adding more decks. Making the cabin narrower doesn't affect the floor area of ​​the cabin much since it is also made longer. The overall volume of the cabin also remains the same. [0003] It is also known that the height of ships is limited by stability and weather conditions. On the upper part of the cabin deck, there are usually one or two decks with public spaces such as restaurant, spa, gym and panora...
