That is a very impressive ship. built in loading ramps & gangways, the most amazing bridge I have ever seen also. The ship is totally self sufficient I think, no need for any outside help other than someone to make the mooring ropes fast on the bollards ashore. They even have armchairs for the Master and watchkeepers. Just watching the use of the controls when arriving and leaving port is really amazing to an old salt like me.
