	Ship tends to be wet forward

Ship space, strength and comments:
	Space	- Hull below water (magazines/engines, low = better): 92.1 %
		- Above water (accommodation/working, high = better): 121.7 %
	Waterplane Area: 26,322 Square feet or 2,445 Square metres
	Displacement factor (Displacement / loading): 89 %
