Our two Spirit-class boats, the largest in the fleet, are indeed
about that size.  I hadn't heard the term "RORO" before, but they
do qualify.  They carry about 350 cars and 2000 passengers.

Most of the other ferries on the major routes are double-ended ROROs
that carry 300 cars and 1500 passengers.
