Ro/Ro Vessels

描述

These vessels are suitable for the transport of goods that can be carried on/off the vessel, such as cars, lorries, and cargo on trailers. Ro/Ro is usually a ferry, and two important indicators of the size for a Ro/Ro vessel are the length of the marked parking lanes and the size of the entrance ramp. Unlike vessels in other areas of transport, where the amount of cargo carried is usually measured in tons, on Ro/Ro vessels this indicator is calculated in meters in length.

Types of Ro/Ro vessels:

ROPAX - vessels capable of accepting a significant number of passengers in addition to cargo. They often have a garage.
ConRO is a hybrid of a container ship and Ro/Ro. Cars are transported on the inner decks, and the ISO containers are transported on the upper deck.
RoLo (roll-on/lift-off) - part of the cargo is accessible through the ramp, and the rest is unloaded using a crane.
