 CONTAINER SHIP
 
  
 
 

Ship designed with a single deck hull which includes an arrangement of holds fitted with cellular guides specifically for the carriage of containers. The cargo handling mode is lift on/lift off to and from the holds by way of weather deck hatches.

 

 

Various features may include:

- weather deck mounted cellular guides.

- one or more holds with no weather deck hatch covers.

- an additional forward hold or tank for the carriage of perishable cargoes in

  non-refrigerated containers.

- an aft superstructure (garage) section comprising cargo decks (of light construction),

  accessed by way of a stern ramp, for the carriage of new, unladen road vehicles.
