I concur Frank, math wins and is fun too!
My folks traveled T/S Hamburg of the Deutch Atlantik Linie
I still have the moment is of those trips that they left behind.
The general ships directory gives the ship's dimensions, etc. Height to bridge wing from waterline = 20.878M or roughly 85.5ft.
Good info when you know where to find it.
Looking at the Nautical Almanac' s dip table, it is a precise estimate anyway.
