The ship blocking the Suez Canal has been fully dislodged, a Suez Canal Authority spokesperson told CNN. The Ever Given, a 224,000-ton vessel almost as long as the Empire State Building is tall, ran aground in the Egyptian canal on March 23. Crews from Egypt and around the world have been working nonstop to try to refloat the ship, with the operation involving 10 tug boats, sand dredges and salvage companies.

They almost renamed the ship .. EVERSTUCK
NEVER FORGIVEN
This ship already has a bad record from before
Lol! Thanks,I needed a laugh!
@donna Stark lol your welcome
@donna Stark and with everything’s happening in the world, a good laugh is a must sometimes
Wow so many goods on the ship
I hope they have given them food and water all up in those storage containers…
@Lighthouse coffee co,
Schitt, they ain’t even left the harbor yet

@Pixxie Snitt Maybe dont let your triggered, polarised fantasies rise all day.
The only freight that ship could trarnsport is.. (..) for ´´dark legions´´ and the democratic system and so on? 😄
Did the propagised enemy picture got changed finally, from Antifa to all democrats?`
Hint: there are way more countries than glory Usa – this video is an example. greeting from Europe 👹
Supply & Demand = Economics 101
This ship will be forever famous, every time it’s seen in any port people will remember this crisis.
@It’s All Good QT wrong, her father was Robert Maxwell, who is now dead. He fell off his boat named the Lady Ghislane after plundering the pension funds of the newspaper he owned, the Daily Mirror in the UK. He’s been dead for many many years now.
Why aren’t we covering the border crisis and the riots in Portland or the two black ten agents who burned a Uber driver to death
@Doug H President Trump will find a way to take credit for it–greatest disaster in history!
@Judy Ann Giese Since you are being so particular about the differences between the two mishaps, it was the third mate who was piloting the Valdez, not the drunk captain, and it was a local professional pilot who was piloting the Ever Given at a high rate of speed (13 knots) and overcorrected against powerful wind gusts. Just to be clear, the Ever Given did not nose in the East bank because high winds drove it there. High winds blew it toward the West Bank, and the pilot overcorrected–probably from panic.
Um crisis? The crisis is what’s on the “blocked” ships.
Diggers, engineers & tug boat guys:
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽‼️
You mean, the Dutch….
@Vincent van Huijstee he’s not wrong. It’s the Dutch
👏👏👏
Don’t forget the super moon 🌝
@Pixxie Snitt troll level, negative 2. Try harder
Those little “tugboats’ are great👍👍👍💋
“Until one lodges in your backside” – Freed ship
ALP GUARD and Carlo Magno are not little tugs….
They are among the strongest tugs in the world.
I’m surprised at how high the shipping containers are stacked. It’s like a fifteen story buildig balanced on the top of that ship
@Andrew Velonis wut. it’s not an analogy. water is heavy, and fluid, that’s why stuff floats on it.
They do lose containers once in a while in heavy seas…. they just fall off. And become collision hazards while they float for quite a while….
@Grants Dad displacement
It’s how they make shipping costs dirt cheap. But methinks it’s getting ridiculous.
My solution was to let the air out of the tires. Maybe next time.
Helium in the brig.
@Barton Dean dude 🤣….. what you’re smoking 🚬🤣
@Nom I can’t tell if this was real honest help or sarcasm.
Now, that was funny!!!….Brad
That’s funny
It’s like a Thomas the tank engine rescue thingy – but it’s real, and with boats. 😄
And we don’t get that wonderful theme music!
There was a show with tugger boats that was like Thomas the Tank engine… Can’t remember what it was called tho
@AttilatheThrilla i remember seeing that too they had faces right?
The global economy had a constipation there for a few days. Glad we didnt all go down the toilet.
Lol uh yeah I seem to be a walking talking unpaid advert,…and , and im still missing my check from all of them over the yrs,…I’m not sure ? If this actually affects me for the worse ,…(I really shouldn’t have to remind people attention without $ is not good) but yeah what a relief right?
Lol
@Kevin Kizer wth? ….Lol!
Just you wait my friend!
The grand prognosticators of supply chain information claim that it will be months before things normalize. Come on, that is such crap. So what if stuff got stalled for a few days. Within a couple of weeks, all those ships waiting will be unloaded and stuff will be on to the customer. No big deal.
A good take on things.
Imagine the Ships that’s sailing to around africa. imagine how they are feeling now that the canal is open..
Only the owners will be pissed 😂
I mean. If they are fairly close, they should turn around.
Perhaps they’re thinking that the tailback isn’t going to clear overnight, and they might as well carry on?
@Darrell it’s business, every now and then you will find this kind of decisions in business, where you have to pick a decision to overcome a problem.
Whatever you pick, you can’t regret it, because you can’t last long in any business if you keep regretting these kind of decisions. Sometimes you win sometimes you lose.
@Ozz Lee True, I feel for them and I really don’t think that they are stupid. I hope that they recover soon.
Mad respect to the people that put in the work to free the ship.

The captain is like- Can I try another U turn now!🤣
Nobody cares so stop commenting and be quiet
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Debby Parker the same ship and captain has also run into a passenger ferry previously
engine and rudder failure… no one changes direction in shipping lanes, let alone a canal…. besides, no commerical ship captian is allowed to pilot any commercial vessel through any canal or port…. only local harbor pilots
That was a very , very expensive mishap !
What an effort by everyone.
Thank you for pulling and pushing together.
Cheers to the little engine that could.
I think I can! I think I can!!
That’s what she said
Here, here.

The little excavator that DID.
I’d say from now on the Evergreen has to take the long way around “You are banned from the canal”
It wasn’t their fault at all. They had sudden 70 mph winds and it has happened with many ships as long as the canal has been there. Wind can steer any ship, more so one which appears to be an 80-100′ or higher sheer wall. It was a narrow single-lane area which gave it no room to maneuver. Bad luck, even a smaller vessel could have blocked the way but would have been easier to dislodge. The captain would be highly experienced to have such a command and would be on the bridge for such tight navigation. I’m sure he did everything possible to control the ship
@Nicholas Eden No, if shipping companies use smaller ships to transport same amount of goods multiple times across ocean, people will blame them waste of fuels and pollutions etc. Harbors and canals need to adapt to change.
@Harry Ballsacky damn, please tell me you didn’t take that joke literally.
@PN Houle
Captain Schettino is currently indisposed.
@PN Houle Ah, yes, the Costa Concordia. I’ve heard of that one. That was disgraceful on so many levels.
Insane engineering…! I still can believe how much weight that ship can hold
https://youtu.be/6l3ukWqRU4s
@Jeff. S. And it was trying to take u-turn.
@Stephen Kershaw Indeed. The 5 story engines are almost unbelievable until you see one.
https://youtu.be/G2TXdqnmGkw
Can hold over than 29 tons I tho..
Captains that made the decision yesterday to go around Africa instead of waiting are punching the air rn
One should read the bestseller “Holland’s Glory” by Jan de Hartog to understand the world of tug boats and their importance for world wide smooth navigation.
Ja ik ken diverse boeken can jan den Hartog…. Inderdaad de zeesleepvaart is een centraal element.>

My father was a tug boat captain and harbor pilot… the world of commercial maritime logistics, military vessels, cruise ships, etc. and harbor navigation is completely different than the pleasure craft piloting, which can be pretty complex by itself. 100 ton and over licensing and certification is more grueling than the bar exam.
