About cruise ships, excursion boats and similar vessels, principally designed for the transport of persons; ferry boats of all kinds

cpc code 49311 covers a diverse range of passenger vessels, including cruise ships, excursion boats, and ferry boats. This industry plays a vital role in the global transportation and tourism sectors, facilitating the movement of people and goods across waterways. As a key component of the broader maritime industry, the vessels described under this code contribute significantly to international trade, economic development, and leisure activities.

Production process

The production of vessels under cpc code 49311 involves a complex and highly specialized manufacturing process. This typically begins with the design and engineering of the vessel's hull, superstructure, and onboard systems. Shipyards and specialized fabrication facilities then utilize advanced techniques, such as steel fabrication, welding, and outfitting, to construct the vessel's various components. The final assembly and integration of these components, along with the installation of propulsion systems, navigation equipment, and passenger amenities, are critical steps in the production process.

Production inputs

The production of vessels under cpc code 49311 requires a wide range of inputs, including raw materials such as steel, aluminum, and composite materials for the hull and superstructure. Specialized machinery, such as welding equipment, cranes, and computer-aided design (CAD) software, are essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce of naval architects, engineers, and shipbuilders to design, construct, and maintain these vessels.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by cpc code 49311 is the production of cruise ships, excursion boats, and ferry boats. These vessels are then utilized by the 49111 Passenger transportation by inter-urban and other motor vehicles and 50111 Sea and coastal passenger water transport industries, which provide transportation services to both leisure and commercial passengers.
