Papenburg, Germany.
The ship measures 682 feet long, with a beam of 95 feet and a draft of 24 feet. The Zenith is powered by a "father and son" four engine plant, with which it can attain a cruising speed of 21.4 knots.
The ship's four engine power plant consists of two MAN B&W 9L40/54 "father" engines and two MAN B&W 6L40/54 "son" engines.
The larger engines have an out- put of 5,994 kW, and the smaller engines develop 3,996 kW.
Power from the plant is trans- mitted to the two controllable pitch propellers via integrated lamella couplings.
The Damatic system engine con- trols were supplied by Lyngso
Valmet Marine Automation.
For additional maneuverability, the Zenith was fitted with a total of three Lips thrusters two, 1,600-kW bowthrusters, and one 1,000 kW stern thruster, as well as two flap rudders, which are operated with a joystick.
The vessel is equipped with five diesel generating sets as well as one emergency generator to provide all necessary electrical power.
The Zenith is outfitted with the latest navigation and communica- tion gear, and a sampling of the electronic equipment on the ship includes: Hagenuk VHF and SSB radios, and loran; JRC radar; and

Fla., to the Caribbean.
The Zenith's sister ship, Horizon, has been cruising the Caribbean and to Bermuda since May 1990.
