  • Patent number: 5599153
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for the transportation of vehicles, primarily cars, by a seagoing vessel. The vehicles are loaded onto cassettes that include at least one floor or story, with each floor or story including a vehicle driveway. The cassettes are loaded by driving the vehicles onto a ramp, or the like, and onto the driveway. The vehicles are positioned one behind the other until the cassette has been loaded with the desired number of vehicles. The cassette is then transported onto the vessel. The vehicles are offloaded in the reverse order so that the cassette is first transported from the vessel to the dock, and the vehicles are driven from the cassette with the aid of a ramp, or the like.
