Why is "A" correct?

I am confused about ans choice "A". Since the ship is docked at the port, the only requirement is that it needs to be less than a 100m. So couldn't the passenger ships from the Blue Star Line be docked at the port also?

Make sure to always read very carefully. The last sentence tells us that the S. S. Coral is a CARGO SHIP that is currently docked at Port Tropica. We know thatPort Tropica can only accommodate ships that are less than 100 meters long. Cargo ships from Blue Star Line are over 100 meters long. Thus, the S. S. Coral cannot be from the Blue Star Line.

Hope that clears things up! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
