I was looking at the specs on my computer tonight, and i wanted to ask you guys. The Queen of Alberni, and the Queen of Coquitlam are exactly the same weight (according to the BCF) and the alberni has 1,000 More Horsepower
Question 1 - Why does the Alberni have a service speed of 19 knots, when the Coquitlam has a service speed of 22 Knot?
Question 2 - Why can the Alberni Carry less cars, even though shes the same length and width as the Coquitlam?
