We had the joy of escorting, among others, what was then the largest ship in the world - the Batillus, a ULCC (Ultra large Crude Carrier) with a deadweight of 550,000 metric tonnes. It was in a group with three Shell UK ships which were a paltry 350,000 tonnes. We were on a frigate and when we were close by it was f%ing huge!!!! By comparison the JFK has a deadweight of only 22,000 tonnes. Pity its decommed now, as the US only has 11 active carriers left. They are pretty awesome. I wish I had some pictures to show, but my parents threw out all my stuff when I emigrated to the US as it was cluttering their house. all my pictures were in one of the boxes ....boo hooo Any how, here is a link so you can check it out!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batillus_class_supertankers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
