Big Ship - Emma Maersk - will hold 15,000 containers

This big ship the Emma Maersk will hold 15,000 containers and has a 207' beam and is 1,302' long! That 207' beam means it was NOT designed for the Panama or Suez Canal. It is strictly transpacific. The more...cruise speed: 31 knots means the goods arrive 4 days before the typical container ship (18-20 knots) on a China-to-California run. Made in Denmark.
