This book tabulates general particulars of 39 ships designed, built and delivered in this Millennium. It also covers many ship types designed and built over the last 20 years. Discussed in detail are new inventions and suggestions for enhanced ship performance in the next decade. The main aim is to give an introduction and awareness to those interested in Ship Design and Ship Performance. It is written to underpin and support the more erudite books published on Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering by Elsevier Ltd. It will also bring together the works of Masters, Mates, Marine Engineers and Naval Architects engaged in day-to-day operation of ships at sea and in port. Over the last three decades, ships have greatly increased in size (e.g. Supertankers). They have also increased in service speed (e.g. Container ships). Groundings and collisions have become more common. Frequently this has been due to ship squat and Interaction effects. One only has to recall the incidents of ‘Herald of Free Enterprise’, and the ‘Sea Empress’.
