Where do cruise ships get their water from and how do they store it?

 Cruise ships get their water from two main sources: the sea and the port. Cruise ships have advanced water treatment systems onboard that can convert seawater into freshwater. These systems use either reverse osmosis or evaporation to remove the salt and other impurities from the seawater.

Cruise ships also get their water from the port when they dock or anchor near the shore. They can connect to the local water supply and fill up their water tanks with fresh water. Cruise ships store their water in large tanks that are usually located in the hull of the ship.

The tanks are made of stainless steel or plastic, which can prevent corrosion and contamination. The tanks hold millions of liters of water, depending on the size and capacity of the ship. The water is then distributed to different parts of the ship through pipes and pumps. The water is also treated and disinfected before it reaches the end user, using methods such as chlorination, ozonation, UV radiation, etc.

Can a whale flip a cruise ship?

 Kind of the opposite as cruise ships can and do run into whales and kill them

The only whale that would be able to flip over a cruise ship is a kaijiu, but sadly for us it isn’t real.

This would be the only whale that can flip over a cruise ship or cause it to entirely sink.
