Talk:List of Panamax ports

message: What is the defenition used in this article for a deep water port? I see the Port of Beaumont listed as a deepwater port, but 40 feet is not really deep in my opinion. Maybe for US standards, but not global. 194.151.10.81 21:49, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Deep water, deep-water or deepwater? 

message: Why include Chandler-Quebec?  Yes it is a long wharf (900 feet), but there are quite a number of other deep-water wharves along the Atlantic, and they are not listed here.  Meanwhile, why is St. John's Harbour (N&L) not included here?  It is certainly more important than Chandler as an Atlantic deep water port.  And why is the Port of Long Beach (CA) also not listed here?  It qualifies as deep water by accommodating Panamax vessels, and is the largest Pacific port in the Western Hemisphere.   Bizarre reasoning here.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Atikokan (talk • contribs) 23:57, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Surely some of the Arctic ports are deep-water ports?  Geo Swan (talk) 00:59, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why no Arctic ports?

message: I agree that this list would be much more useful if it listed additional information about each port.
What should it list?  I suggest the following would be useful:
#Maximum dimensions.  Just like canal locks have maximum practical dimensions of the vessels that can traverse them, I suspect ports do as well.  If known we should list them.
#Annual tonnage transhipped;
#Continent port is located in;
#Country port is located in;
#Body of water the port is located on;
See List of lift locks for an example of what this could be like.  It uses a sortable table.  If we used a sortable table then we could have one table.  Readers who wanted to know which ports were in a particular country could sort the table on the country field.

replies: text: I agree that this list is problematic.  I recently removed a port that wasn't really a a deep water port.  The article deep water port defines the term as a port that can accommodate a panamax vessel.  Geo Swan (talk) 05:34, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

If any port has been closed, it is Port Jackson (the one with the famous Harbour Bridge)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.84.45.238 (talk) 14:22, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Because it used to be named List of deep water ports and it was a redirect to there. It actually deserves it's own article. Now if we could only agree what the term actually means .... Fmph (talk) 11:15, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

message: What is about the Port of Hamburg, the biggest port of Germany and third biggest in Europe, where they handle the RMS Queen Mary 2 and independently of the tide ships with 12.8m depth, sailing on the tide waves even 15m?
And Bremerhaven, Germany's second largest port, which is the main port for the eight Emma Mærsk class ships where they have their regular 45 hours service delay.--46.115.41.214 (talk) 07:11, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

message: In the article it states that this list will need to change with the new locks but that does not seem like it really should, all these will still meet the original Panamax class of ships that will be with us for many more decades to come. The other set of locks is a new standard, at least as of now often being refereed to as "New Panamax" or "Post Panamax", with new/post being something that should not ever be dropped from the name to avoid confusion. It seems more like a new list should be created for those that can handle new one, with this as a link at the top for see old Panamax port on it and a see New Panamax on this.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.12.255.181 (talk) 13:28, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
