Handymax is a naval architecture term for a bulk carrier, typically between 35,000 and 60,000 DWT. A Handymax is typically 150-200 meters (492-656 feet) in length, though certain bulk terminal restrictions such as those in Japan mean that many handymax ships are just under 190 meters in overall length (LOA). Modern handymax designs are typically 52-58,000 dwt in size, have 5 cargo holds and 4 cranes of 30 mt lifting capacity.
