Royal Caribbean’s new boat is massive. Really massive. The “Project Genesis” cruise liner, currently being constructed, will be 43% bigger than the Queen Mary II, currently the world’s largest ship. 1,180 feet long and weighing 220,000 tons, it’ll be able to carry more people from New Jersey down to the Caribbean than any ship before it.

5,400 people, to be exact. The ship is so massive that it has a “Central Park” the size of a football field in the middle, its own gigantic amphitheatre, and seven different “neighborhoods” that people will stay on. This thing is bigger than an aircraft carrier, people. It’s f’ing large.

It’s due to launch next year, and in 2010 a second ship of the same size will be unleashed as well. I’ll be staying far away from both of them. [Official Site via Boing Boing Gadgets]
