I am astounded an entry on a tanker can omit any reference to her carrying capacity! What was it? Trekphiler 03:30, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(according to this site, "The T2-SE-A1 had a total of 9 sets of tanks, with a total cargo was about 5,930,000 gallons [141,000 barrels]. A small dry cargo space of about 15,200 cubic feet was located forward of Tank Number 1. Two pumprooms were located forward and aft. The main pumproom was aft, with six pumps, while the forward pumproom had two lower capacity pumps.") Trekphiler 03:33, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
