China has achieved another milestone by floating out its second domestically built large cruise ship, the Adora Flora City after just one year of construction.
The float out took place early Monday at Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding yard, as the massive vessel was carefully moved from dry dock to water.
The entire process was completed by 7:30 am, marking a significant phase in ship construction, where the hull is largely complete and interior work begins.
Over 70% of the ship’s construction is already completed.
The Adora Flora City reached this stage far quicker than its predecessor, Adora Magic City, which was around 40% finished at the time of its own float out.
This shows the country’s growing expertise in cruise shipbuilding.
Adora Flora City is larger and more advanced than Adora Magic City. It weighs 141,900 gross tons which is 6,400 tons more than its sister ship, and it measures 341 meters
