M.V. Volgaborg
« on: May 12, 2015, 02:53:07 PM »
Hi All,
Can anyone tell me what the two oblong box structures are on her deck a third of the way back from the bow? I've noticed that several of Wagenborg's vessels have them.

Those are the hold vents. Usually can be seen on many 90s-onwards built multipurpose freighters that have 2 holds (usually of different lengths) & these vents placed in between.  Freighters that are some 100 & less meters long with a single box-like hold have vents boxes before the hold on forecastle & after it near the superstructure.
