Ro-Ro Ships

• The Ro- Ro, or more fully the Roll on roll off
  vessel, come in a number of shapes and sizes, but
  generally in two types the passenger Ro-Ro and
  the cargo Ro- Ro.
• Passenger Ro-Ros have become a common sight
  wherever people want to travel over water with
  their vehicles. It is probably the only types of
  cargo vessel that most people have traveled on.
  Usually a rear door (but sometimes a bow door)
  allows for vehicles to be driven on and off,
  stored on the car deck below the passenger
  accommodation areas.

The cargo Ro-Ro is less 'plush' than the
passenger types, as these vessels are designed
for the carriage of commercial vehicles where
luxurious passenger accommodation is not a
primary consideration. Considerable concern has
been expressed over the bow- door type of Ro-Ro
design. The HERALD OF FREE ENTERPRISE was one
such vessel, where the practice of sailing before
the bow door was fully closed had been allowed to
develop. Tragically, on leaving Zeebrugge, the
folly of this practice led to the disaster that
claimed nearly 200 lives. If water is allowed to
enter the car deck, the stability of the whole
vessel can be rapidly affected. It is estimated
that it takes only small amount of water over the
whole car deck, for the vessel to become very
unstable. The ESTONIA was another such vessel
where, in a storm, the shield over the bow door
was ripped off. Once water penetrated the car
deck the vessel began to turn over and sink.
