The ro-ro vessel

This was the start of today when things were relatively good - since then it just went down the tubes and I have been enveloped in a wet cloud with zero visibility for the rest of the day!
The thumbnail is the best bit - it looks as if a tsunami is about to swallow everything up!
I'm late with my commenting I know but I will catch up later on this evening....

TRANS SOL (IMO: 9348936) is a Ro-Ro Cargo and is sailing under the flag of Malta. Her length overall (LOA) is 165.75 meters and her width is 25.6 meters.
A vivid pink cargo ship, "ONE HARBOUR," adds a bold and colorful touch to Hamburg’s bustling port. Contrasting against the industrial backdrop of stacked shipping containers and cranes, this eye-catching vessel stands out as a symbol of modern maritime transport. With seagulls in flight and deep blue waters below, this scene captures the dynamic energy of international shipping and trade.

SEA-CARGO EXPRESS
Befitting the diverse cargo mix entailed in trading on the Norwegian coast and in the country’s shortsea industrial traffic, a truly multipurpose character is displayed by the 5,000dwt Sea-Cargo Express, the first newbuild investment in regular liner service by a Norwegian owner for some years.
The fact that the vessel looks Norwegian through and through, not least in its combination of sideport cargo handling system, stern ramp, and heavy-duty deck crane, all within a modest scale, belies its Indian construction. Bharati Shipyard’s success in attracting the order in 2005 had been indicative of Indian shipbuilding’s concerted drive on the export market.
However, owner Sea-Cargo has had to endure a series of delays, such that it was seven years before its versatile new ship made its debut on the route linking Aberdeen with Tananger (Stavanger) and west coast ports up to Trondheim in the north. Although compatriot Nor Lines cancelled an order that had been placed at the same time with Bharati for identical tonnage, Sea-Cargo has kept faith with the Indian yard in a follow-on project entailing two 5,900dwt LNG-fuelled ro-ros, expected to be ready in 2013.
Thus, as well as being the latest embodiment and refinement of a trading vessel concept well proven in the Norwegian and North Sea traffic, the particular significance of Sea-Cargo Express is as a new international reference for Indian shipbuilding and as the template for two further Sea-Cargo vessels that will be distinguished by the adoption of a gas-engined, mechanical-drive solution.
The forward location of the superstructure optimises the usage of the hull envelope and cargo working configuration. In keeping with the particular needs of west Norwegian trade, the vessel is equipped with the means of handling palletised goods, ro-ro, lo-lo, and heavy-lift freight, and incorporates four cargo deck levels.
The TTS-supplied starboard side door and associated two cargo lifts serve the ro-ro garage and lower decks. The pallet elevator platforms are each of 10t capacity and can be used over a wide range of quay heights and in all vessel draught conditions. The load rating in the lower hold, at 10t, corresponds to that of the cargo elevators.
Ro-ro access to the main deck is via a TTS stern door/ramp, imposing in its 15m width relative to the vessel’s breadth of just under 18m. The ramp is 12m in length, with 2m flaps, and its scantlings provide for a maximum load of 100t, in keeping with the heavy load rating of the main deck at 6t/m2, allowing the handling of industrial and offshore equipment as well as dense cargoes such as forestry products. The main deck offers a 4.8m clearance, and the overall trailer or cargo stowage area of 1,320m2 provides a total 500 ro-ro lane-metres. Deck area in the lower spaces is 1,050m2 on the tweendeck and 800m2 on the tank top.
The weatherdeck is suited to project cargo and containers, whereby a maximum 118teu can be stacked in two tiers using the portside-mounted, hydraulic knuckle crane offering a 50t lift capacity on the 22m-outreach main beam. At full 35m outreach, with the arm extended, the crane can lift 25t and serve the whole of the uppermost deck. The lo-lo mode can also be applied to the underdeck spaces, since a flush, liftaway hatch is fitted just forward of the crane in the weather deck on the portside. Hatches are also fitted immediately below at main deck and tweendeck levels.
Sea-Cargo Express is powered by a single Wärtsilä 9R32 medium-speed engine of 4,500kW, enabling it to make 15kt on service schedules. The gearbox and controllable pitch propeller are from the Scana Volda range, and contributory to the efficiency of the whole is the adoption of a 1,275kVA shaft generator.
