vesselslimits
vesselslimits is a term that refers to the maximum capacity or size restrictions placed upon maritime vessels. These limits can be imposed for a variety of reasons, including navigational safety, port infrastructure capabilities, environmental regulations, and economic considerations. For example, certain harbors or canals may have draft limits, restricting the maximum depth to which a vessel can sit in the water, to prevent grounding. Beam or width limits might exist to ensure vessels can safely pass through narrow channels or locks. Length restrictions can also be in place for similar reasons, or due to the turning radius required in confined waterways.
In addition to physical dimensions, vesselslimits can also pertain to the cargo a vessel can carry. This
