Large Ships

It depends where you live... Usually it takes 2-5 Business days.

The duration of a ship's journey from the U.S. to Ecuador can vary significantly based on factors such as the departure and arrival ports, the type of vessel, and weather conditions. Typically, a cargo ship might take anywhere from 10 to 20 days for this route. Passenger ships or cruise lines may take longer due to additional stops and itineraries. For precise timing, it's best to check with the specific shipping line or cruise operator.

Could you mean a figurehead? See

The titanic was under water for 100 years.(:

sleep

it was a stormy night when the edmund fitzgerald sank and no one knows exactly what happened.

The Queen Mary 2 is bigger. Here are some facts and comparisons about the Queen Mary 2 from the Cunard Web Site. The length: 1132 feet; Beam: 135 feet; Beam at Bridge Wings: 147.5 feet so the Queen Mary is bigger

The ship's wheel (helm) moves the steering gear, via electrical motors or hydraulic rams, in the engine room which in turn moves the ships rudder.

In the days of sail it was a series of ropes wrapped around the shaft the wheel is attached to. That's why it was so big, to allow leverage to turn wheel and pull the appropriate ropes.

The heaviest ship ever built was the Seawise Giant, built in 1979 by Sumitomo Heavy Industries (Japan). She had a lighstship displacement of 81,879 tons, and a full load displacement of 646,642 tons. She sailed under different names until 2004 when it was used as a floating oil storage facility, and finally sold for scrap in 2009.

Mermaids don't even exist

It is called a figure-head and it doesn't have to be a mermaid, can be pretty well almost anything.

only and only 1 billion dollars {criuse ship}

Three days

14 days

It means it is of an approved non-combustible material that will prevent flame passing through it for at least 30 minutes for the standard test.

Start with adding 4 quarts after changing the oil & filter. Start the engine and run for a couple of minutes. Shut if off and wait 30 min. Add until it is full. You will now know the correct amount, which should be around 4.5 qts.

Navy ships and Cruse ships have the bridge at the front as they have a large superstructure.

Cargo vessels don't have a large superstructure, so the bridge is at the back also providing constant observation of the cargo.

Ferries with short crossings some times have the bridge in the middle of the ship so they don't have to keep turning around wasting time and fuel.

Hope this helps.

The " front "or forward part of a ship is called the bow the "back" or aft part of a ship is called the stern
The front of a ship is called the 'bow' or the 'prow'. The back of a ship is called the 'stern'.

Tall ships.

More specifically, a Barque or Bark has three masts (possible more) fore and aft rigged mizzen mast.

Barquentine, three masts with all but the foremost fore and aft rigged.

A fully rigged ship, three or more masts, all of them square rigged

A Schooner, three or more masts with fore and aft rigged sails

A brigantine was originally a small ship carrying oars and sails. But later evolved to a two-masted ship. The brigantine was the second most popular ship built in the American colonies.

When a vessel is floating upright, there are two forces acting on it. The buoyancy force acts upwards and the gravity force acts donwards, cancelling each other. If a heeling force acts upon it (such as a wave hitting it), these forces are upset, and then a couple is formed. If the ship is loaded properly, a righting couple results, bringing the ship upright. If the center of gravity is too low, then an upsetting couple will result, capsizing (overturning) the ship.

They used a combination of practices. Prior to the early 1700s, captains on sailing ships used the stars. In the 1600s, they used "Reflecting instruments". By 1730, they used a sextant which is a "doubly reflecting navigation instrument". All instruments used angles between stars visible to the ship. The compass was in use as early as the ChineseHan Dynasty (about 206 BC). It was used for navigation by the Song Dynasty Chinese during the 11th century,

It obviously depends from where and to where. But in general terms, you will probably need to use a container - a shipping agent will be able advise you on the safety requirements and cost. As a rule of thumb, the adminstration and import duty will be roughly the same as the shipping costs.

because it has buttock lines and breast hooks.
