Yes, MOL has built some beasts. So is China Shipping, Cosco Shipping, and Maersk. They are getting into the 16.5K TEU range, and 1,100 feet in length. They now have to get wider and deeper because much more than that length and the wave period would require much stronger scantlings to cope with the stresses.

It’s sort of interesting how you often get two different threads out of one thread.

There’s one smaller thread in this of people who have some idea of what they’re talking about, are providing actual information of value, who have done a bit of research on their own about the incident.

Then there is a larger thread of ranting idiots who just read the headline of the thread and keep posting feeble attempts at humor, blissfully oblivious to all the posts of the people on the “other” thread within this thread.
