Captured from my bedroom
That seems like a hard boat to capture. What’d you do with all the people?
Ransomed them, this view doesn’t pay for itself.
I wouldn’t get on that fucking boat, holy shit.
I think it’s supposed to sit like that. Here is another photo from the boat’s website that looks the same:
In this photo you can see a thin strip of black above the waterline all the way down, and significantly more at the stern and bow.
She does sit pretty low though, you’re right.
Me either, I like my vacations with more personal space and dry land
I’m talking about how low it is in the water; you should be able to see the safety paint above water all along the hull, not just a little bit at the bow.
That thing looks overloaded and waaaaay to apt to capsize.
Oh damn I don’t know shit about boats 😬 that’s nuts though, isn’t there a regulatory body for boats like this?
I think it is mostly the insurance companies who demanded it in the first place. I don’t know how it works from a regulatory perspective.
I thought that was an apartment building at first.
Housing problem solved?
Cruise ship. They’re basically very sad apartment buildings on water and with more pollution.
Surely any kind of wave would sink it? 😬
It looks like it was built for rivers, so no worries of a big wave that would cause concern.
I mean we have a history of losing steamboats on the Mississippi and Missouri, no they don’t take waves well and they’re not supposed to get out in bad weather but they often did got swamped with water and exploded, grounded or sank.
