I wonder if it is safe to boat without being able to see in front of
you?
It does conflict with the responsibility to keep a proper lookout. I
looked at some pix of the Emma Mxxxxx the worlds largest boxboat.
Two hundred fifty feet from the water to the deck. Hide another ship,
not just a boat, under those bows.
Ok, I'll plead ignorance.
What is a box boat? I'm familiar with the J series "box" boat (I
think they call them cracker box) racers, but I have no clue what a
box boat is.
Especially one that is 250 feet high from water line to deck. :)
Container ship?
250 feet high?
That doesn't sound like much, but trust me - that's high.
Here's one 207 feet. Not sure if that's from the bottom on the keel or the
waterline. Probably from the keel.
