According to the NY Post

According to nautical tracking service VesselFinder, the massive Ever Given charted a route resemblant of a (something) in the Red Sea before it became stuck, causing an intercontinental traffic jam in the maritime artery. 

As for the possibility that the vessel tracking site somehow conjured the data as a juvenile joke, “There is no room for some kind of conspiracies or false data,” a spokesperson for the site told Vice.

Anytime you try canal there's a risk that it won't fit.

So this is going to cause another run on toliet paper and a bunch of other stuff.  Like gas.  

I can't stop looking away. They should have a live stream on this thing

Seems kinda like not a big enough deal is being made of this. This is an enormous kink in the world’s supply chain right now.

We can't get the boats we have unloaded as it is.  The impact timing with the weather patterns as they are is not so bad, I mean it's bad but had this happened in like July we'd be right ####ed.

Those ships look so over loaded.  Have no idea how they don`t flip over in rough waters at sea.

They load the heavy ones at the bottom and the light ones at top, and if it gets really rough they can take on ballast

And they frequently lose containers at sea.  They make for great fishing but you don't want to hit one on plane.

why would they possibly draw this?  Were they just waiting to get into the canal or what?

I guess WAZE is going to have to add another hazard type to its app.

Seems like a pretty typical shape for something that’s about to enter a canal.
