4000 cars??? Doesn't seem possible. That is, unless you take into
consideration that the theaters on modern passenger cruise lines can have
a capacity of over 2500 people. ..


These ships are tall also. Did not surprise me that one turned turtle.


A 4000 car carrier is barely average by today's standards. Many can
carry a few thousand more.


They are still very tall for a ship. And not super deep draft. Lots of
the Asian cars come in to Benicia which is in the north of the bay, pretty
much where the Sacramento River dumps in to the bay.


I've seen these car-carrier ships out on Chesapeake Bay once in a while,
heading to the Port of Baltimore. No idea what size they were, in terms
of car capacity. They are ugly ships and as you note seem top heavy.

Oh, if you are in the Bozo Bin, it is because you are only here to
insult or your posts lack wit or you are deadly dull, or a combination.
In Just-AN-Asshole's case, it is all three...insulting, witless, and
deadly dull.
