@Denis & Brett…. Many Thanks comments.
It is my understanding the barge Seaspan Forrester and sisters “Phoenix” and “Survivor” are the largest self discharging (dumping) log barges in the world.

You should see videos on Youtube how they unload fully laden such barges in just few seconds.
Impressive those cranes have a 70 tons (short tons?) capacity.
