Quantum of the Seas delivered

The maiden voyage of the Quantum of the Seas will take its passengers from New York (Cape Liberty) to the Bahamas
The first ship of the Quantum class sets new standards in terms of eco-friendliness, the German shipbuilder said. It features highly energy-efficient systems, optimised hydrodynamics, heat recovery, an effective underwater paint coating, a state-of-the-art exhaust gas treatment plant (hybrid scrubber) as well as energy-saving LED lighting systems.
With a length of 347.75m and a beam of 41.4m, the cruise vessel can accommodate 4,180 guests in 2,090 cabins as well as a crew of about 1,550 on 18 decks.
The DNV GL-classed vessel sails under the flag of the Bahamas. Powered by four Wärtsilä engines (2x12V 14,400 kW and 2x 16V 19,200 kW) the total engine output is 67,200 kW. With a propulsion power of 41,000 kW, the newbuilding achieves a top speed of 22 knots.
