you may remember this,
photograph EPA/MAXAR TECHNOLOGIES, The
Ever Given, that is a huge container ship, part of the Evergreen fleet, blocked the Suez Canal in March last year, the effect on world trade was huge, well fast forward to March this year and,
another
container ship owned by Evergreen Marine has run aground, image
credit: US Coast Guard, this time in in
Chesapeake bay near Baltimore. The ship named Ever Forward was
departing when it became stuck last Sunday night, looking at
charts, #EVERFORWARD may have slightly deviated from dredged
navigation channel into shallower waters after departing Baltimore, She's
apparently not blocking the navigation channel, but is quite close to it, John
Scott-Railton (@jsrailton) March 15, 2022, high
tide was earlier this evening, but it doesn't rise enough in that area to float
a stuck ship, You can keep up with the Ever
Forward's predicament and current location at Marine Traffic, the latest I can find out is that on Monday efforts were being made to refloat her, in my day the phrase was, "someone will receive a slapped wrist after this!"
