Actually, according to the 1971 Red Book, the dimensions of the Anderson, Calloway, and Clarke were 620 (lbp) x 70 x 36 with a capacity of 20234 tons. The largest boat in the Pittsburgh fleet in 1971, both in terms of length and tonnage, was the John G. Munson. Dimensions of the Munson were 640 (lbp) x 72 x 36 with a capacity of 23263 tons. There are at least two errors in the 1972 Red Book. First, the Munson (and the other ex-Bradley boats) were not included with the Pittsburgh fleet but are in the Red Book index. Second, the correct dimensions for the Voorhees are 614 (lbp) x 67 x 35 with a capacity of 18000 tons (the same as the other Supers).
