Ha, I happened to see it leave Boston August of last year and snapped a photo of it because it was jaw dropping big (and I’m not a boat person!) the Evergreen had 4 tugboats guiding it. Yeah that thing isn’t moving without professional help. https://photos.app.goo.gl/6Ywgot5wmK6HDNoV6 https://photos.app.goo.gl/6Ywgot5wmK6HDNoV6 Edit: so this is the “ever living” that’s 335 meters long. The ever given is 400 meters long

That's another ship. The tweet is about "Ever Given", not "Evergreen". Edit: Comparing with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_container_ships#/media/File:EVER_GIVEN_(49643352087)_(cropped).jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_container_ship... it might or might not have been the ship. Evergreen is the name of the company: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evergreen_Marine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evergreen_Marine

    Looking at GP's foto again I believe the name of the ship they photographed ends with a 'G'. But I also realized my mistake with mixing up the ship's name with the company name.

  There you have it, shows you how much I know about boats, although the more I’ve been reading this thread the more interested I am about learning more about the industry.

  Evergreen is one of the shipping companies from Taiwan. Incidentally, one of my favorite airlines EVA Air is their spinoff airline, based in Taipei (and far better than the flag carrier China Airlines)

    The ship is Japanese operated by Taiwanese company, according to NHK News this evening in Japan. The ship ran aground due to bad weather conditions, poor visibility due to sand storm.

Yeah, don't take this the wrong way but your pic doesn't do it justice at all, looks pretty normal sized from your picture.

  The exif data is on that photo, but i recognized it as castle island, and the exif confirmed. really nice park to watch sea and air ships.
