A gross registered ton (GRT) is a measurement used to determine the overall internal volume of a ship, expressed in tons, where one ton is equivalent to 100 cubic feet (approximately 2.83 cubic meters). It includes all enclosed spaces on the vessel, except for certain areas such as the engine room and crew quarters. GRT is primarily used for regulatory and safety purposes, influencing factors like port fees and safety regulations. However, it does not measure the ship's weight or cargo capacity.
