But if someone doesn't know what to think or say about that ship - how he can vote then if there's no "I don't know" option?
The poll should be understandable & friendly to all people of wide range of intellect.

How about a poll

"Are you a marine/naval architect and are you qualified to say whether or not it will float/sink/fly?"

Yes/No

Are they really likely to spend 100s millions building something unless mrs miggins in the shipyard pie shop says it is viable? Desirable is a different matter of course!

Not yet...

Of course it will probably float, as long as the weight of the volume of water displaced is more then the weight of the vessel.

Though I can imagine it having a very large turning circle, and probably not fit most of the ports in the world.

What was the name of that big barge thing that was supposed to be the biggest floating object, other than Robert Maxwell when he fell from his boat.

McGherkin · « **Reply #11 on:** February 18, 2010, 17:57:25 »

Robert Maxwell's boat? England?

She was prettier as Carnivals "Tropicale" with the typical funnel.

oceandream · « **Reply #14 on:** February 18, 2010, 19:28:03 »

they changed here funnel now.
but she is still very pretty

But too long!! The longer the ship, the more bent it is, and when it hits high waves, it will break. Princess Kaguya II is better than Princess Kaguya, the longest. If it does sail, I will never go near a long and chance of breaking vessel that is to be longer than the Oasis record holder.

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #16 on:** February 18, 2010, 21:17:56 »

See above regarding need for professional maritime qualifications...

let oasis ,allure and genesis be the largest cruise ships of the world.
hope you guys agree with it

Unless I'm mistaken, none of us here manage cruise lines, shipyards, certification societies, investment banks or engine builders.

So what we think is quite ir-relevant

McGherkin · « **Reply #21 on:** February 19, 2010, 18:07:45 »

I voted;

'Can the it float when it will be launched?'

Just to even things out. It is no longer so under represented. It has 1 vote.

It might not float when launched. A vessel many years ago was launched and it capsized when in the water. Princess Kaguya might end up like another sunken vessel, as the ugliest shipwreck.

"Dear Bank, I write for a loan of Â£150,000,000 to build this ship. I enclose our business credentials and forecasts..."

"Dear shipping company. It looks a good proposition. Only one question for us- does it float?"

"Dear Bank. We never thought to check."

Come off it. It isn't going to happen, is it?

Wave Music · « **Reply #24 on:** February 20, 2010, 14:41:16 »

Like in the famous phrase: Every ship floats.

Poll

Plz vote on poll what you guys think about the Princess Kaguya
