Go-karting on the ocean waves

CHINESE cruise passengers will be offered a world-first next year, when Norwegian Cruise Lines unveils its onboard go-karting track.

Go-kart company RiMO Supply revealed on Friday that it has been tasked with arguably its most unusual project to-date: creating a full go-karting track on the decks of the new 3,900-passenger Norwegian Joy #cruise ship, which is currently being built in Germany.

The 251-yard long racetrack will be located on decks 18 and 19 and will come equipped with 20 electrically-powered karts, a viewing platform, a covered pit lane, workshop, storage room, timing system, and floodlights.

RiMO Supply says the karts will have to be designed to work ‘under the unique conditions of intensified UV and saltwater exposure’.

Norwegian Joy will debut in 2017, operating from the Chinese ports of Shanghai and Tianjin. The ship will also have an indoor amusement arcade area featuring dodgem cars.
