Thanks for reposting this information, along with the photo of the Sulzer Diesel engines and you technique of planking.

It is interesting the way that "non-functional" factors, such as limitation treaties and fees have affected ship design over the years. I am reminded of the shelter deck vessel with "tonnage openings" in the shelter deck so that it would be exempt from being included in the ship's tonnage measurement.
