He cocked up the Suez Canal

[pmclaine]

Suez Canal cargo ship sailed in rude shape before blocking waterway

The MV Ever Given's ill fortune began in the early hours of Tuesday when it left a phallic tracking pattern described as 'innocent, but terrible luck' on its approach to the Suez Canal.

What a dick.

 

[Downtown]

I assume the captain must have served in the military. Some things are just irresistible.

 

[2aBaC̶a̶]

MV Ever Given it to em right in the...

 

[GrumpyOleFart]

Fuck you, Suez.

 

[Davo308]

Likely a Marine. Ship renamed ss Flesh Musket.

 

[Maggot]

A tremor in the Force and gas prices go up $00.25 p/gal

Drawing a dick and getting stuck in a tight spot?

Definitely a "LEEERROOOOYYYY JENKINGS" vibe going onto this story.

 

[AZ_Spot&Stalk]

A little lubricant with take care of that.

 

[2aBaC̶a̶]

Wonder what the MV stands for.

NF Ever Given would be gold.

 

[TheHorta]

A feel-good story to bring out the best in the Pit.

 

[GrumpyOleFart]

MV is Motor Vessel isn't it?

Marine.

 

[candyx]

Dry run for when they want to shut down the trade route.

[GrumpyOleFart]

I used to think it was Maritime Vessel.
See, learn something new every day.

Meh, and here i was hoping for something creative like Midget Vagina or some shit.

 

[Clob McStrunk]

So...no one on here is going to discuss the nefarious gossip associated with this little mess?

What would that be?

 

[Mr.BR]

Reenactment of Nassers Suez blockade, couple of the ships loaded with rocks and sunk paralyzed the trade in the end was the last straw that broke Brit empires back.

 

[ccasanova]

That’s Nuts

 

[Mr.BR]

Will be interesting to see how many lawsuits and damages will result out of this 'clogged toilet'

Such size ships pay $700.000 to pass through the Suez canal. Smaller ones pay less. The average is some $450,000 and at cca 50 ships per day the losses for Egypt add up.

The hundreds of ships which are currently blockaded and the owners of their cargoes may also ask for compensation.

The ship is insured likely up to 140-150 million. That will not be enough to pay for this incident. Many court claims will be made. The Japanese owners of the ship, the Taiwanese charterer, the German company managing the ship, the pilots and the crew will all be asked to pay for every penny that is not covered by the insurance.

 

[jbuck88]

No idea how maritime law works over seas, but in the US there are statutes that limit the damages to the value of the vessel and cargo.

 

[Mr.BR]

A moment in time when the fate of global economy hinges of one man with an excavator

But seriously does it seem like the effort matches the impact of the 'clog' ?

 

[Davo308]

They are saying this could cause a world wide toilet paper shortage.

 

[Sean the Nailer]

Gotta get the Bering Sea Gold dredgers over there.... they'll get the ship floating!

 

[Mr.BR]

Lots of digging ahead

#Evergiven stuck at km 151. Nautical "sonar" chart from http://myshiptracking.com confirms right 1/3 of canal shallow, not for navigation with water depth less than 4.5m.

 

[candyx]

You take another ship down stream turn it sideways so the canal water backs up and floats out the stuck ship. Biden said C'mon Man this isn't brain surgery as Kamala open the door of the Resolute Desk and crawled out with a old dry pearl neckless to chime in.

 

[buffalowinter]

What makes you think this was an accident?

 

[pmclaine]

More Chinese tom foolery on the high seas?

Quit fucking around......get an empty ship while you are fucking around and start loading the containers on it. Those things float like corks when empty.

 

[atomic41]

What makes you think this was an accident?

It's not and there is a lot of weird stuff going on here. It drew more than a penis, it's a penis ramming up a behind, they delivered a very clear message. The Q people have really been running wild with this.

 

[Brent B]

I think the ship is full of primers.

 

[sjmpcc022]

It took 32 years but finally, Joe Hazelwood is no longer the worst and drunkest ship captain in the history of ship captains.

The ancestors of the dip shit who was piloting the Titanic were caught on video high five ing and twerking!

 

[Rangemaster]

This crap is really affecting my business, I just seen a 20% increase in costs this week. Get ready people for a major tick up in inflation next week. You think bullets are tough to get, think about food and gas.

 

[salks]

SPIT ON IT !!!

 

[Pbgt]

Maybe some of the "backdoor boyz" on here will donate some of their astro glide.....?

 

[woogie_man]

Just get another ship the same size and DP that bitch! Ram the tip of this ship with another to dislodge it!

Thinking this must have been a female captain? You know diversity and all

 

[vh20]

Haha! My FIRST thought when I heard this story was that it was full of all the Retumbo we've been waiting on for 2-3 years now.
