About the ShipThere's never been a cruise ship like this. Enjoy one-of-a-kind features like an ice-skating rink, the Royal Promenade and a rock-climbing wall. There was only one way to accommodate all of these innovative ideas. We built a bigger cruise ship. The 138,000-ton, 3,114-guest Explorer of the Seas offers more space for every guest - plus enhanced staterooms, expanded dining options and exceptional recreational facilities. This cruise ship is so high-tech, it even features the University of Miami Ocean Lab, a state-of-the-art oceanographic and atmospheric science lab.Ship Facts Maiden Voyage: October 28, 2000 Passenger Capacity: 3,114 Godmother: Jackie Joyner-Kersee Gross Tonnage: 138,000 Length: 1020' Max Beam: 157.5' Draft: 29' Cruising Speed: 23.7 knots --per RCCL.com |
