The erudite readers of tugster know Evergreen doesn’t have a single vessel, the one that caused some anxiety in Suez recently. In fact, the fleet comprises about 200 ships, of different sizes or classes. The L and F classes currently call in the sixth boro. The teu capacity for the F class is just over 12000. In other words, the vessel that departed the sixth boro this morning holds 8000 fewer containers than Ever Given, coming in over 20000 teu. Another way of visualizing it is this: add all the containers of this F class boat AND all from an L class vessel . . . and you’ll have one Ever G class. And consider this, an Evergreen A class is on the drawing board . . . coming in between 22k and 23k containers!
Enough alphabetizing . . . Ever Faith is currently on its way to Baltimore.
