ABSTRACT:
A containership (1) having a superstructure which comprises a hull, a container bearing deck (2) located beneath the waterline, sidewalls (3, 4) which extend upwardly from the container bearing deck to define a container hold (5) located within the hull. At the top of the walls is a strength deck (8) whose position approximates the position of the uppermost row of containers (9) when the ship is fully laden. The elongate sidewalls (3, 4) restrain the containers and provide a weather shield.
