I still don't get used to such large vessels. I suppose that a wide view from the bridge is limited by a huge 'dead angle', so the question comes forward to me what will happen if, in dense maritime traffic conditions, its radar systems get out of order by e.g. an electrical power black-out, Raj? I think however that there's an emergency back-up system.

Very good image, my friend. S+F off course!

Sure is a big one...and it has the power. Can't quite imagine how it remains balanced in stormy seas such as Capes Horn and Good Hope, but I'm sure you know.

Now, Raj, you may be in a small trouble, because there are two of us, specialists here [yourself excluding as the author]. I have been working in the shipyard all my life [ie the most professionally meaningful and active part of it]. Firstly it is a nuisance for me to have to do the calculations just using my head [so out of nothing and nowhere ...] why not use the metric system if even the Brits are doing it ?
Secondly where was this nice young girl built, please?
Thirdly not the biggest but amongst those of substantial size.
Thanks for the beauty.
