Looks like a big fella for Tees Dock. What is the largest vessel they can take there?

Biggest I ever took into Tees Dock was Harrison's "Strategist".
She was 35,700 Gross and about 60,000 d.wt, 740 feet long.

A ship of that beam will certainly make it a "Tight Squeeze" for the ferries passing in
and out particulalry so if there was also a ship on the Potash berth.
