Norwegian Joy Cruise Ship to Have Go-Kart Track

Norwegian Cruise Line's next ship - Norwegian Joy, is to feature a fully equipped premium Go-Kart track built by RiMO Supply.

Norwegian Joy is currently under construction at Meyer Werft in Papenburg, Germany and will be designed for 3,900 passengers.

The ship's racetrack will be located on the ship's upper decks, 18 and 19, and will be equipped with 20 karts, a viewing platform, covered pit lane, workshop, storage room, timing system, floodlights and a track that reaches 230 meters in length.

RiMO Supply's electrically powered race karts utilize the latest technology to ensure optimal usage under the unique conditions of intensified UV and saltwater exposure that exist onboard a cruise ship.

"We are proud to contribute our years of experience to such an outstanding project," said Peter Bertram, owner and CEO of RiMO Germany Group. "The electronically controlled engine sound as well as the non-existent exhausts are sure to meet cruise passengers' expectations of a relaxed but varied and unique ride. Cruise ship passengers of nearly every age should be excited to have the opportunity to enjoy this one-of-a-kind amusement ride found only on Norwegian Joy."

Home porting in Shanghai & Tianjin (Beijing), Norwegian Joy was designed specifically for the Chinese market, with onboard amenities that cater to the desires of Chinese travellers.
