I know there are a few Cruise Lines now that have ships with Pool Tables.

Royal Caribbean (Radiance Class)
Carnival - Mardi Gras
MSC - Seaside

Any I missed? Who's played?!

Are the balls square and/or the cloth a shag carpet?

The tables are self-leveling but I imagine they have slow cloth to keep roll off to a minimum.

I was asked to apply for a "pool leader" job on a cruise ship. It didn't seem to pay anything and I had to pay for transportation to and from the port and $50/day for food. I guess it would have been a cheap way to take a cruise.

Here's what it looks like in medium seas:

 
With suffering from vertigo on terra firma I can’t even imagine what playing pool on a cruise ship would be like, even on calm seas. Nope, not ever gonna go on a cruise of any sort….Petri dishes….
 
I played on the gyroscope table on a Royal Caribbean cruise out of FL. There were 2 tables on the ship.
They used a heavier napped cloth to prevent balls from rolling but for the most part the tables remained level.
On heavy seas days you could watch the table leveling.

I played on those tables a little bit everyday on that 5 day cruise. One the first day had to repair a cue with a slip on tip that I carry around. On day 2 RC staff repaired the cues.

Last I saw they sunk the gyro tables and now have a few bar tables on a few ships.
