That's going to take some shifting.

Just blow it up.

That's got to be among the heaviest free moving things on earth right? Includes "your mom" Sik burn.

Was that coming to Europe? Laden with gfx cards .

God speed brave hero's of 4k fps.

Containers full of GPUs

Apparently she's 219,000t and is carrying 20,000 TEUs. That might take some shifting if the inertia of such mass has caused it to embed itself in the banks.

That tracker is awesome just look at the volume of traffic. Appreciate the scale is huge. Probably shipping tinsel for Christmas.

 

[petridish]

Wonder if they ever planned for this? If they have some way of shifting the containers onto land to free it up again? Still gonna take forever by the looks of things and then what do you do with the ship if it's still stuck and damaged...

Someone let the work experience lad pilot the ship?

"Just keep it straight"

So from some examining....

This ship might be paying over 600k in canal fees for this one way canal passage and that would include a pilot and more than one tug to help manage the ship.

Looks like multiple sombodies in the Suez Canal Authority done screwed the pooch on this one.

prices on everything will be going up even more now.

Eyes
Like a sunrise
Like a rainfall
Down my soul
And I wonder
I wonder why you look at me like that
What you're thinking
What's behind
Don't tell me
But it feels like love

I'm gonna take this moment
And make it last forever
I'm gonna give my heart away
And pray we'll stay together
Cause you're the one good reason
You're the only girl that I need
Cause you're more beautiful than I have ever seen
I'm gonna take this night
And make it evergreen

Touch
Like an angel
Like velvet to my skin
And I wonder
Wonder why you wanna stay the night
What you're dreaming
What's behind
Don't tell me
But it feels like love

I'm gonna take this moment
And make it last forever
I'm gonna give my heart away
And pray we'll stay together
Cause you're the one good reason
You're the only girl that I need
Cause you're more beautiful than I have ever seen
I'm gonna take this night
And make it evergreen

(Oh yeah don't tell me
But it feels like love)
I'm gonna take this moment
And make it last forever
I'm gonna give my heart away
And pray we'll stay together
Cause you're the one good reason
You're the only girl that I need
Cause you're more beautiful than I have ever seen
I'm gonna take this night
And make it evergreen

You should be ashamed. I'd be ashamed if I posted that.

 

[Yaayuh!]

I'm gonna take this moment

I'm gonna take this night
And make it evergreen

Gotta love this bloke's optimism:

Registered in Panama...

Conspiracy theory: Was done on purpose to drive more traffic to Panama

 

[Russinating]

As above, it'd have been piloted by someone who works at the Suez right, not just the regular captain?

Why does it have a different name on the side? Presume that's legal and just lazy?
