Implementations of an automated cargo transfer system are provided. The automated cargo transfer system may be used to load cargo onto, and unload cargo from, the deck of a ship. In some implementations, the automated cargo transfer system comprises: a deck section for the ship; at least one cargo lifting device comprised of a base portion and a crane coupling; a crane hook system configured to interface with the crane coupling and thereby used to reposition a cargo lifting device, and its cargo; and a crane automation system configured to operate a crane equipped with the crane hook system and thereby load cargo onto, or unload cargo from, the deck section of the system. Wherein the deck section is configured so that one or more cargo lifting devices can be removably secured thereon.
