Shipping, the Crown Odyssey is powered by an innovative "father and son" four-engine plant consist- ing of two Krupp MaK 8M601 "fa- ther" engines with an output of 10,880 hp at 400 rpm each and two

Krupp MaK 6M35 "son" engines, each developing 3,604 hp at 720 rpm. The plant produces a total of about 29,000 hp and a service speed of about 22 knots. The engine out- put is being transmitted via double reduction Renk gears with inte- grated lamella couplings to a KaMe-

Wa controllable pitch propeller sys- tem. The main and auxiliary en- gines are designed to operate on heavy fuel oil IFO 600.

Electrical power is provided by four Krupp MaK diesel generating sets with a total generator capacity of 12,500 kva as well as one emer- gency generator with a capacity of 760 kva.

Two semi-spade rudders directly fitted behind the controllable pitch propeller and two bowthrusters en- sure good maneuverability of the

Crown Odyssey. Additionally, she is fitted with Ross Industrie stabi- lizers which reduce her roll motion by 90 percent at a speed of 17.5 knots.

On board the Crown Odyssey there are a total of 11 public rooms including the "Seven Continents

Restaurant" on deck 6 which seats 640 persons. The other public spaces are situated on the Odyssey,
