Så det fattas nog tre nollor.Bulk Carrier
Bulk carriers are designed to carry unpackaged goods. They haul large volumes of single-commodity goods such as fertilisers, grain, ore, wood, etc. They also transport machinery, coal, cement and other raw materials.
Bulk carriers are segregated into these categories:
Capesize: The largest in size of the dry cargo ships. Able to carry 110,000 tonnes or more of raw materials, mostly ore or grain. It represents 9% of the world’s bulk carrier fleet.
Panamax: This ship travels through the Panama canal and it’s defined by the canal’s size limits. 40 to 42ft draught for the old Panamax and about 50ft for the newer model, and its cargo capacity is typically about 60,000 tonnes for Panamax and nearly double for New Panamax. Comprises about 19% of the bulk carrier fleet.
Handymax: 30 to 35ft draught, a load capacity of 37,000 tonnes, and it represents approximately 24% of the world’s bulk carrier fleet.
Handysize: Smaller than the handymax class and with a load capacity of 30,000 tonnes. They represent 48% of the bulk carrier fleet.

Det är som du gissar, de är handy att använda.
B-MAX, där B står för Baltic och Bosphorus, är ett extremt brett fartyg med litet djupgående som skall kunna lasta över 200.000 ton i Primorsk och ut genom danska Stora Bält med ett djupgående på 15 meter.
