Type C6 ship
The Type C6 ship is a United States Maritime Administration (MARAD) designation for a container ship developed during the transition years from moving goods by breakbulk cargo to containerization. The Type C4 ships ''Mariner'' class, arranged with its house/engine-room in the center vessel with cargo hatches at 4 forward and 2 aft, was very successful. Eleven Type C4 ships were converted into Type C6 container ships, and eight vessels were new built. As of February 2015 three converted C4s are extant as crane ships in the National Defense Reserve Fleet, and one C6 remains in reserve service.
==American President Lines==
Three vessels of the American President Lines had been built in 1966 as Type C4-S-1qa ships by National Steel and Shipbuilding, San Diego, California. Between 1972 and 1973 these breakbulk cargo vessels were converted into partial containerships.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.shipbuildinghistory.com/history/shipyards/2large/active/toddseattle.htm )〕 The conversion work was done at Todd Pacific Shipyards, Seattle, Washington. Overall length was extended by 105 ft. Bow thrusters were also fitted into the ships for improved maneuverability along with an improved stabilization system.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ship/mariner.htm )〕 Between 1984-1986 all three vessels were acquired by the U.S.Navy and re-fitted as Auxiliary Crane Ships for use by the Military Sealift Command (C6-S-MA1qd).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://drawings.usmaritimecommission.de/drawings_c6_s_xx_types.htm )〕 As of 28 February 2014 all three of these converted vessels were listed in Ready Reserve Force, National Defense Reserve Fleet.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.marad.dot.gov/documents/i140228.pdf )〕
The American President lines also took delivery on four new built ships, designated Type C6-S-85b, the ''Pacesetters'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.apl.com/wps/wcm/connect/9ac4350041a4b2d5bb2efb62abbb971d/APL%2BHistory.pdf?MOD=AJPERES )〕 from Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula, Mississippi. Three were delivered in 1973 and the fourth in 1974. Between 1979 and 1982 the vessels were traded in to MARAD as partial down payment for new ships. They were first laid up at the Suisun Bay Reserve Fleet but were eventually scrapped.
