Mezzo folding deck and grain separator enables ordinary tramp ship or cargo vessel to be converted at moderate cost, into dual purpose ship, equally suitable for carriage of bulk dry cargoes, such as grain, or parcel cargoes, such as motor cars, tractors, etc; it increases deck space by 70%, without impairing original characteristics; consists of system of hinged panels which, when vertical, form fore and aft bulkhead to prevent grain shifting in deep holds, and when horizontal, form extra deck which divides holds into two 'tween decks.
