Manoeuvring systems on cruise ships

Brodovi za kružna putovanja su najveći putnički brodovi na svijetu koji istovremeno prevoze nekoliko tisuća putnika i članova posade. Zbog sigurnosti ljudi takvi brodovi opremljeni su najsofisticiranijim sistemima u svim područjima. Manevarski sustavi na brodovima za kružna putovanja preuzeti su iz raznih grana morskog brodarstva i prilagođeni njihovim potrebama. Ključna komponenta svakog broda ovog tipa je dizel-električna propulzija uz koju se veže tehnologija azimutalnih porivnika, te u zadnje vrijeme sve češće se ugrađuju sustavi dinamičkog pozicioniranja. Prioritet ovakve vrste brodova jest sigurnost i udobnost putnika, te kvaliteta samih kružnih putovanja.Cruise ships are considered the biggest passenger ships in the world that simultaneously transport several thousand passengers and crew members. For safety reasons these ships are equipped with the most sophisticated systems all around. Maneuvering systems aboard cruise ships are from various branches of marine shipping industry. Crucial component of every ship of this kind is diesel-electric propulsion which is closely related to technology of azimuth thrusters, and in most recent time far to often Dynamic positioning systems are being installed. The priority for cruise ships is safety and comfort of their passengers, with having the quality of their cruise vacations in mind
