Netherlands subsidised liner

[Korpen]

Got inspired by the GC ship, so here is a liner for the rather un-economic route Rotterdam-Angusstad-Batavia.
The range might be a bit excessive but it will allow for a high speed trip between Angusstad and Batavia, a neat run of 7000nm.

The freeboard seems low-ish for a liner, but she looks good otherwise.  The all-cabin arrangement's probably a good choice for a route that long.

Look forward to seeing the picture...

Le Magnificent is now 10 years, and her replacement is designed.
Unfortunatly, pricetag of Le Magnificent and the current government aren't of the same idea, so all military specs she had are ommited, except the 2 hoists that are convertable to moint and hoist gun emplacements.

Oil firing to get rid of the black smoke that plagues Le Magnificent on high speed.

A longer, more slender hull gives a higher speed compared to power.
This eleminates  the vibrations that make Le Magnificent less suitable for longer ranged high speed runs.

Now I want to see what the New Zionite steamship looks like.  I'm thinking, "four circular swimming pools, two forward and two aft, with the inner ones raised up a deck level to...umm...be exclusive to the first class passengers.  And really thick plating in case of icebergs."

Ledeper - quite an impressive beast, but the engine year needs to be 1912 or 1916.  P3D's comments about coal versus oil probably apply to you and to Maddox.

Maddox - not enough freeboard; it ought to be 1/3 to 1/2 of beam.  The low steadiness may cause sea-sickness, too...

[Korpen]

Look forward to seeing the picture...

Working on it, I have just found out that it is quite hard to draw liners...

[The Rock Doctor]

Indeed.  Different design considerations entirely.

[maddox]

This better then?

The oil firing has a comfort reason, and that may cost a bit.  Less smoke/soot/ashes, passengers on the deck don't like soot on the clothes.
And the trade off: the black gang or oil.
What's cheapest? a few 100 guys shoveling coal or a few pumps and more expensive fuel?

I tend to agree with M on the fuel issue (although a few hundred easily replaced people vs still semi rare oil well idk id go oil just for reliability reasons (you can make full spd as long as you dont break somthing no people to get tierd)

Now I want to see what the New Zionite steamship looks like.  I'm thinking, "four circular swimming pools, two forward and two aft, with the inner ones raised up a deck level to...umm...be exclusive to the first class passengers.  And really thick plating in case of icebergs."

I had to reread to get the joke.
A real gem!

Some googling let me know that several liners were converted to oil firing after WWI. However, liners are large that having enough stokers should not be a problem to maintain cruising speed, and one might also expect some semi-automatization here.

For an everyday liner of 20-22kts, coal would be the best choice (and most liners are 15-22kts or even slower). A liner with 27kts cruising speed should go for oil firing, but such liners would be much more expensive to operate.

The bow and stern angles don't match the drawing.

To be honest - I think she'd look better with wider funnels - say 50% wider.

It does, as is now visible when i included underwater portion as well.
Granted that my choice of bulbuls bows is an effect of the length restrictions on dry docks, I like clipper bows, but as using them would impose a artificial restriction on the DD they can use. So by using bulbuls bows I can get the above water clipper bow look I want, while at the same time utilise the full waterline length. :

True, she do look better that way. :)
But still not pleased with her, drawing feedback is is desperatly wanted.

Lower and wider funnels:
