ocean vessels
Boats at sea
Ocean vessels are watercraft designed to travel on the sea, ranging from massive cargo ships and oil tankers to cruise liners and naval warships.
The term encompasses any boat or ship capable of ocean navigation, distinguishing them from vessels meant only for rivers, lakes, or coastal waters.
The port handled hundreds of ocean vessels each month.
Ocean vessels must be built to withstand open water conditions including heavy swells, storms, and long voyages without resupply.
