The Netherland Fortitude is a ship owned by the Netherland Steamship Co. It is approximately 690 feet long and has a capacity of 22,300 tons. Find the draft of this ship in meters. 2. The CLS Netherland is a ship owned by CSL International Inc. a. Suppose the volume of the ship is 223,145 cubic meters. Calculate the gross tonnage of the ship. b. Suppose the depth of the ship is 14 meters greater than the draft of 13.2 meters and the volume of the cargo spaces is 217,500 cubic meters. Calculate the net tonnage of the ship. 3. Suppose that you will be shipping a container of paper from Buffalo to Rio de Janeiro. If the container rate is $2,800, the currency adjustment factor is 40%, the terminal handling charge is $310, the bunker adjustment factor is 12% and there is a $35 cleaning fee (this is an arbitrary charge), what is the per container rate? 4. Suppose the Herbert C Jackson owned by Interlake Steamship Company is preparing a voyage for 5 days at sea and 2 days at port. a. Bunkers cost approximately $85 per ton and the ship requires 30 tons of bunker fuel each day at sea but only 1 ton while in port. i. How many bunkers should be loaded onto the ship for the voyage?
