In some ports of the world offshore vessels are routinely overloaded, to the point that they would be in danger of floundering in adverse weather. This is the Laut Tide photographed by Kenny Polson in Singapore. Of course it is possible that despite the fact that the stern in virtually under water the very low freeboard assigned to most offshore vessels may mean that the load line is above the water. Photo taken by Kenny Polson and posted here on 17th September 2013.
