edit: what about Blue Marling carrying USS Cole?

Oh my... That's just too awesome!

WTF is up with the third one? Do they really carelessly stack river ferries like that?

bottoms one is Barge with river ferry one top!

actually....


yep, Chinese casco's are moved to europe for outfitting that way.

...barges on barges on a barge....

barges is build to withstand a lot of forces, The hull "have to be" reinforced to withstand that type of force the receive over the years, the "frame work"is also a tad stronger than you find in for example a cruise ships.

For example in Norway when they was building that huge oil-rig "Statfjord-A" they used similar barge to transport the superstructure onto the pillars.

see in this video at about 1:40, that's the power off.....:

No wtf - Klag - No need to doubt - It's like ''what can I do..'' Blue marlin is quite some times used like this recently since the other HLVs where stranded/sunk at heavy seas a few times back. And... Only the most bellow ones are barges the other are ''vessels''

ugly ship - great drawings!
