I'm always impressed when I see such mammoths passing by on their way to or from the port of Antwerp, Belgium. To know where we're talking about (lol) I'll give you some some figures of the ship on the right side of this image: the MSC 'Arbatax' (former 'Judith Schulte') was built at Shanghai Jiangnan-Changxing Shipbuilding and was completed in September of 2013. Its homeport is Hong Kong. The overall length is 299.00 meters (!) ; the overall beam is 48.20 meters and its maximum draught is 14.00 meters. The deadweight is 111,000 tons (!). The maximum speed is 22.2 knots (1 knot is about 1852 meters per hour). The maximum container capacity is 9,400. Impressive figures, aren't they?
I hope you'll like this image too. Thank you in advance for your comment.
