Thames Europort is a roll-on/roll-off port facility at Stone in Kent, England, close to Dartford. The facility is situated on the southern side of the River Thames.[1] The port was used solely for freight traffic, both trailer and container based but now mainly handles imports of Mercedes cars and vans. There is a large pontoon-type berth which can accommodate two ships for simultaneous loading and discharging. The terminal can accommodate vessels up to 236m (774feet) in length, 32.2m (105.6feet) beam and 11.5m (37.7feet) draft.[2]
