Quick Answer: Handymax bulk carriers are dry bulk vessels of 40,000–59,999 DWT, typically 150–200 metres in length with five cargo holds and four deck cranes. The segment includes two main sub-types: Supramax (50,000–59,999 DWT) and the larger Ultramax (60,000–65,000 DWT). They trade minor bulks, grains, fertilisers, steel products, and coal globally, and are tracked commercially via the Baltic Supramax Index (BSI).In twenty years of shipbroking, including my time fixing bulk carriers at Maersk
