the other ancestors of Szczecin Shipyard's container ships were four RW 49 vessels from Rickmers Werft.
One of them had longer hull, with Hold No.2 extended by one 40' bay and had three 36/40t cranes installed:
(L = 163,1 m, B = 22,5 m, H = 11,1 m, capacity: 1176 TEU)

(L = 147,2 m, B = 22,5 m, H = 11,1 m, capacity: 1020 TEU)

The last one got her "bulges" at the bow removed, resulting minor lost of TEU capacity:
