The Central Marine Design Bureau "Almaz" (part of USC) has developed the concept of the Arctic cruise liner "Kunasir". It is based on the serial icebreaker of project 23550. The vessel is designed for cruises, transporting passengers in the Arctic, and landing them on undeveloped shores and ice islands.
Three usage options for the "Kunasir" liner:
- expeditionary
- research
- cruise
The liner includes space for UAVs and a helicopter, as well as two hovercraft. These can be used for excursions, iceberg viewing, and rally raids.
The living area of the liner will feature cabins ranging from 22 to 59 square meters. "Kunasir" passengers will be able to travel in maximum comfort even in harsh Arctic conditions.
The available comfortable and entertaining infrastructure will allow you to enjoy the beauty of the protected nature of the Arctic, Antarctica, and the Arctic.
Characteristics of the "Kunasir" cruise liner:
- displacement — 9000 t
- length — 112 m
- width — 20 m
- draft — 8 m
- full speed — 16 knots
- ice class — Arc7
- passenger capacity — 74 people
- crew — 55 people
- endurance in terms of water and food supplies — 35 days
- 4 diesel generators with a capacity of 3500 kW each
- 2 diesel generators with a capacity of 1000 kW each
- 2 propulsion electric motors with a capacity of 6300 kW
