The Han Asparu , now renamed to Jumbo I , is a cargo ship named after Khan Asparuch , which was built in 1982 in the Deggendorf shipyard in Germany. It is a semi-catamaran with a total length of 114 meters and a width of 22.80 meters and a draft of 1.65 meters, which is designed as a RoRo ship .
The ship was built for inland freight traffic on the Danube for the route between Widin in Bulgaria and Passau in Bavaria . It is almost rectangular in shape above the waterline, the loading deck with 2500 m² offers space for 49 truck trailers of 12.5 meters in length - 7 next to each other and 7 in a row. Alternatively, 8 ISO containers can be stacked next to each other.
The ship makes full use of the 24 m width of the Danube locks from Geisling (river km 2354) to Freudenau (1921), leaving 1.2 m clearance on one side or 60 cm on both sides. The locks above are only half as wide as the ship at 12 m, but the locks below are wider than the ship at 34 and 25 m. The length of the Danube locks from Geisling to Freudenau are (at least) 230 m long, so they can - just under - accommodate 2 ships of this size in a row.
The load capacity is 1530 tons. The construction was carried out in two individual parts, which can also be separated again, as there is no possibility of repairing a ship of this width in the entire area of the Danube. The ship is powered by two 926 kW diesel engines .
At the stern on the deck are the cabins, on the port side there is a parking space for about 2 cars. In front of the cabins in the ship's longitudinal central axis is the lowered lifting bridge , which can be raised over the cabins via two parallelogram arms in the middle of the ship . An all- round rotating radar antenna can be raised even higher from behind the lift bridge. The two stern anchors are lowered from sloping ramps that lie somewhat within the engine screw axes. At the non-tapering bow there is a fold-up ramp, about 11-12 m wide, with 22 extra articulated, thinly tapering adapter plates. Next to and below that, 2 anchors are drawn flat into the ship's side.
On the port side at about 3/4 of the ship's length and on the starboard side closer to the bow at 1/4, small extinguishing towers tower over the standard truck load. A lifeboat is carried at the stern.
There is a motor winch and powerful bollards at each bow deck. The loading area is provided with a low tail lift on the side, outside of which one can walk around the ship on deck. On the starboard bow deck there is a raised stand for a guide plus radar antenna.
The axles of the 2 drive engines are about 58% of the width of the ship apart and in front of the cabins in the lower ship. Each acts axially on a propeller . The stern tapers for the last 8 meters. There is a winch on each side, the bollards open to the side.
Two ships were built in Deggendorf in 1982, both are divisible.
- Han Asparuh - type ship, at least since 2009 with this "new Euro number 47000168"; renamed to Jumbo I total output 1852 or 1766 kW. Load capacity 1340 t.
- Han Tervel - sister ship, renamed Jumbo III in 2015 . Europe no. 47000169. Machines: 2x KHD SBV 6M 628, total output 1852 kW. Load capacity 1530 t. Parking space for cars to the left of the cabin.
Han Tervel can be divided lengthways, including the access ramp for vehicles at the bow. When the ship was built in 1982, the slipways in Linz were not yet suitable for the entire width of 22.8 m, explained Captain Otto Steindl in 2009. On March 22nd, 2009, 8:48 pm, user Helmut1972 also puts 4 pictures on Schifferforum, which shows a right half of Han Tervel 1985 in the shipyard Linz on the stacking system ashore, which was created by longitudinal division, you can see that the wheelhouse (helm) protrudes left at the rear.
According to Helmut1972, these divisible ships meet a requirement of the Rhine Central Commission z. B. for new passenger ships in inland navigation: Two independent drives, which are also separated by a longitudinal bulkhead in the engine room.
Two other ships were built in 1983 as catamarans with the same dimensions in Belgrade and are real catamarans by design and cannot be divided:
- Han Krum , renamed to Jumbo II (home port Lom, Bulgaria, Europe No. 47000170, as of 2015) total output 1766 kW. Load capacity 1340 t.
- Han Kardam (XAН KAPДAM) (home port Lom, Bulgaria, Europe No. 47000171, status 2009) No port-side parking space. Telescopic lift bridge. Total output 1852 kW. Load capacity 1530 t. Call Sign: LZLR.
All four ships operate regularly on the Danube and have the same width, length and carrying capacity.
At the Linz shipyard, ÖSWAG , two of these ships were pulled up to their full width without dismantling a few years ago, dismantling them in order to process them on land in the dry, for example for corrosion coating of the hull or service on the propeller, is not (any longer) necessary.
