Water TransportationTypes of Vessels: Vessels are designed to perform specific jobs. The design depends upon the what the vessel will transportBroad classifications of vessels are:CommercialRecreational UtilityMilitary

This slide shows 4 broad classifications of water transportation. On the following slides you will see examples of each class of vessel. 21. Commercial Vessels

It is designed to sink down in the water to the red line shown.10Container ShipsCarry large containers packed with products. The container are lifted on and off the ship by cranes. On land, the containers are place onto rail system or transported by truck.

These ships can transport 100s of containers over long ocean journeys relatively cheaply

11Freighters Are large vessels that carry solid materials and products. Freighters are used to transport large items such as automobiles.
