How much room would 120 people have on a 200 ft ship?

Question

Let's say there was a ship around 200 ft long at a minimum and possesses both an upper and lower deck.

If there were around 120 people on board would they have a decent amount of room to move about or would they be crowded?

how wide is you ship?

Very rough estimate, not taking into account common space, passageways or mechanical spaces...

Even if it's a skinny ship, with a beam averaging only about 30 feet, that's 6,000 square feet of deck space.  12,000 square feet, on two decks, or 100 square feet per person.  That's a 10 foot by 10 foot square.  Comfortable enough.

Each person gets 3 1/3 ft of space. That’s not a lot.
