This research investigates the implementation of vehicle ship lashing on ferry vessels, focusing on the interplay between costs and operational outcomes. Comparing crew-assisted lashing and automated systems, the study uncovers financial implications and potential cost efficiencies. The research also examines the effects on loading and unloading times, as well as the influence of lashing methodologies on ticket pricing dynamics. By exploring innovative alternatives to conventional lashing techniques, the study aims to address limitations and improve overall operational efficiency. The insights from this research serve as a valuable resource for stakeholders, operators, and decision-makers in the maritime sector, enabling them to make informed choices that optimize both economic viability and operational effectiveness.
