I wonder how long it takes until the thickness of the paint is also counted in the size measurements of a ship to be the biggest ever ?!
NOW!!!,,,if we could get rid of the sailors,,how safe shipping would be !!!!!!!!

Well, Capt T, the salvage operators used to add in the horsepower of every little auxiliary generator and pump, to try to give the highest possible overall horsepower for the tug.  For a while they even persuaded Lloyd's Register not to include main engine horsepower for tugs, when it was being shown for every other kind of vessel, so that they were less easily rumbled.
