That will certainly push the ship into the bank unless you have one heck of a towboat pushing on the bow. . Kind of surprising that only 1 ship went aground. [/quote]
Original Message
A giant container ship has run aground in the Suez canal, causing a traffic jam of vessels at either end of the vital international trade artery.
The 220,000-tonne, 400m-long Ever Given became stuck in the canal on Tuesday and several attempts to refloat it failed.
