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

- TimWolla 6y agoLooking 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.

- kenneth 6y agoEvergreen 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)
