The Bow visor.

The bow visor is a big heavy piece, it takes a 3 storey building with apartments on both sides for it to fit, about 9 x 9 x 18 meters.

The bow visor weighs 55 metric tons, it’s equivalent to a parking lot with about 45 cars of the type Volvo V70.

The hull that line the bow visor, the white shell, is about 8 mm thick, it is as thick as the iron piece on top of a balcony railing or the handrail of a stairwell.

Red = ca 9 meter

Blue = ca 18 meter

Green = helplines
