GURPS Vehicles abbreviations - Page 2

I'm new to GURPS, so please bear with me.

I'm trying to understand the way a vehicle is stat'ed out and not have a lot of success. For example, here's a description I found in another thread (specifically, http://forums.sjgames.com/showthread.php?t=47403&page=8) and many of the abbreviations are a mystery to me.

Caravel, exploration (73‘)
TL: 4
ST/HP: 165†
Hnd/SR: -3/5
HT: 12c
Move: 0.2/6
EWt: 35t
LWt: 85t
Load: 50t
SM: +8
Occ: 18
DR: 12/6
Range: -
Cost: $70K
Locations: 3M, O, S
Draft: 7‘

Things like TL, EWt, LWt, Load, Cost, and Draft are fairly self-explanatory. But what about the others? Is this GURPS Vehicles 2nd Ed., 4th Ed., or something else entirely?

Any illumination would be much appreciated. Thanks!
