COMMENT THIS PHOTO(3)
This was one of 4 so-called Seabridge" class cargo ships that were designed as combination Ro-Ro, container, reefer and general cargo ships. They had cargo hatches on deck, had container cell guides below deck, and the lower holds were refrigerated. They also had a stern ramp accessing the upper tween deck, which ran uninterrupted for the entire length of the ship. The "Seabridge" ships were sort of seagoing "jacks-of-all-trades-and-masters-of-none". In other words, they could do a lot of things, but did not do any of them particularly efficiently. As a result, no further examples of this type of ship were ever built.
