Detailed outlines of each major vessel category are provided, including:
• Feeder ship;
• General cargo vessels;
• Container ships;
• Tankers;
• Dry bulk carriers;
• Multi-purpose vessels;
• Reefer ships;
• Roll-on/roll-off vessels.
The book also explains where these are permitted to operate, the type of cargoes carried, and specific safety or risk factors associated with the vessel class, as well as their main characteristics. Relevant case studies are presented.
The textbook is ideal for merchant navy cadets at HNC, HND, and foundation degree level in both the deck and engineering branches, and serves as a general reference for insurance, law, logistics, offshore, and fisheries.
