Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro) ships are brilliantly designed to carry anything with wheels, including personal cars, commercial trucks, trailers, heavy construction machinery, and tracked military vehicles. By deploying massive articulating steel ramps directly onto the concrete port dock, these vessels completely bypass traditional crane operations, allowing cargo to be driven on and off with ease.
The interior of a standard Ro-Ro or Pure Car and Truck Carrier (PCTC) feels like an enormous floating parking garage fitted with adjustable decks and connecting ramps. Because thousands of vehicles generate dangerous quantities of combustion exhaust during loading, the boxy hulls feature rows of open ventilation ports to maintain continuous cross-ventilation.
