Stuck

I wonder what the liability is for that ship owner and where jurisdiction is. Bet it’s a Byzantine nightmare.

I suppose there are a lot of industries weakened by the pandemic. It will take some time to work through the problems.

They're talking about removing some of the containers to lighten the ship so that it can be "unstuck."
This is a BFD.

Unless the tug boats can’t get there, can’t they just have a shit load of ships attach ropes to this ship and pull it out? Clearly I’m a certified maritime captain.

I suspect it will take helicopters
That captain’s career is shot.

My understanding is the weather caused this. A severe dust storm with high winds. No visibility and no control against the wind due to the profile of the ship.

This photo drives home the scale...
With the size of the ships coming through, I’m surprised they never devised a lock system yo raise and lower the water levels.

The front of the ship starts to go off the correct line, the motors power one side or the other to correct for example
It just surprises me that this would happen. For sure, someone who was steering messed up big time!
Evergreen is a Taiwan company, and the headline in one of the papers yesterday was "National Embarrassing!"
