Video: Behind the scenes on Independence of the Seas

May 7, 2008

Not often you get to see behind the scenes on a cruise ship but TW was shown the engine room and galleyon Royal Caribbean's Independence of the Seas. Here we have the engine room footage - six enormous diesel engines are used to power the ship (not all at the same time).

When we dropped in one engine was operating and the heat and noise was quite something.
