Happy R-Type

Happy River, Happy Rover, Happy Ranger

The Happy R-type is a versatile heavy lift carrier. Equipped with strong, 400 mt SWL Huisman cranes, they can handle units up to 800 mt in a tandem lift.

A large, unobstructed hold allows long units to be stowed under deck. The lower hold and tweendeck height can be adjusted in 50 cm steps, from 3.45 m to 8.90 m. Without the tweendeck fitted, units with an overall height of 11.70 m can be stowed under deck. Tweendeck and upper deck strength can be increased by the positioning of pillars underneath the hatches. This allows for large, concentrated loads to be placed on deck.

In addition, the Happy R-type ships are approved to sail with partly opened hatches. This enables them to stow on their tank tops very high units that can protrude through the main deck. Due to the hatch cover arrangements with folding hatches, the Happy R-Class ships can also be used for bulk cargoes and other general commodities.
