Yard not correct[edit]

"OOCL Hong Kong" was built with 5 sisterships at Samsung SB with Yard Nos. 2172-2177. At Daewoo SB ist the Triple E class Mk.2 under construction.87.162.88.32 (talk) 19:44, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Diesel-electric?[edit]

I believe it is not a Diesel-electric drive system. The Diesel engine is connected to the propshaft without transmission. 160.46.252.18 (talk) 14:49, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Calling a ship "she"[edit]

Hi @Murgatroyd49, would you mind elaborating on why a ship is described using "she" and not "it"? FuzzyMagma (talk) 11:29, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Convention for the last couple of thousand years and still the convention on wikipedia. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 11:32, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I thought it a ship thing. interesting tbh. Any pointers for someone who want to learn more about this? FuzzyMagma (talk) 11:34, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Apart from the obvious rejoinder to try googling it (not very helful!), there are discussions on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Ships talk pages but you will have to hunt through the archives. Basically the ancient peoples regarded ships as things of beauty and having a soul and must therefore be female. An attitude that has remained down the centuries.
