ship Crown Odyssey was delivered by the Papenburg, West Germany, shipyard of Meyer Werft to Royal Cruise Line of Piraeus, Greece. The 616-foot cruise ship has a molded breadth of 92-1/2 feet and draft on summer freeboard of 22.7 feet. She has 12 decks, and is able to carry 1,221 passengers in 526 cabins. The Crown Odyssey also has 199 crew cabins and a complement of 443. The Crown Odyssey is powered by an innovative "father and son" four-engine plant consisting of two Krupp MaK 8M601 "father" en- gines with an output of 10,880 hp at 400 rpm each and two Krupp MaK 6M35 "son" engines, each develop- ing 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 output is being transmitted via double reduction Renk gears with integrated lamella couplings to a KaMeWa controlla- ble pitch propeller system. The main and auxiliary engines are de- signed 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, Lido and Horizon decks (7th, 8th and 11th decks).
