Ship Capacity Measures (New page)

Added a new page explaining the basic ship capacity measures based on displacement (e.g. deadweight tonnage) and ship volume (e.g. gross and net tonnage). On occasion, these terms are confused with one another. An explanation is also provided for the unique TEU capacity measure for containerships.
