SHIP SPECIFICATIONS, EQUIPMENT, AND SUPPLIES
7. SHIP SPECIFICATIONS. a. General external characteristics. An engineer port repair ship is similar in external appearance to the average sea-going commercial cargo carrier. Two ready means of identification are the cathead on the ship’s prow and the number and arrangement of the cargo booms. These features are discussed in detail in paragraph [10]. (See figs. [4] and [5].) The ship’s superstructure begins at the mainmast and continues aft to the stern. Forward of the superstructure are the two masts, the three hatches, and the forecastle deck.
b. Principal dimensions and capacities.
