    But what about the surface load? Does it get sprayed with water?

    We have oil tankers here in the United States. That I've seen coming in & out of port for years. With about as much rust on them as your logger ship. And yet they're still considered structurally sound. And seaworthy vessels. It might be an older ship. But let's let the maritime authorities determine when the ship is no longer fit for service.

    • @logbulker

      Thank you for your comment. In order for a cargo ship to operate, it must be regularly inspected by a classification society to ensure it is seaworthy. Although this ship looks very old, she has been inspected regularly and has passed the classification society inspection, which means she is carrying logs. As you say, she's a fine lady.

New Zealand has a great climate for pine trees and our trees can reach cutting maturity within 25 years...Pine cultivation and harvesting has been a sustainable export business for New Zealand since the late 40's and early 50's...for every tree cut down another is planted in it's place...This is the meaning of a 'green' technology....
