That’s How Cruise Ships Can Stay Upright in Any Weather

A majestic snow-white cruise ship looks like a piece of art. It’s a city in itself, with cafes, stores, swimming pools, gyms, and a water park. Everything, from its impressive size to the number of passengers on board, leaves unprepared observers speechless. The biggest mystery for some people is, “How does this big guy stay afloat and avoid keeling over?“ Cruise ships are built to withstand 50-ft waves. Such huge waves are a rarity, and a typical ship is unlikely to come across one of those during its career. But still, cruise ships are surprisingly well-prepared for all bad weather Mother Nature has in her bag of tricks. They’re designed to handle even severe storms during the hurricane season!
