7500 containers is a lot of 'stuff'!
I hope my shocks and springs aren't on that one 👿
Aye, I saw that on Dom's Twitter feed. Oops 😉
However, could be worse - one of my recumbent suppliers lost a containerload of frames a few years back when there was a fire onboard, and a container of Chinese fireworks exploded. The explosion blew about 100 40ft containers right off the ship.
Should be intresting when the insurance companies ask what locks where fitted to the doors, and then tell you that youre not covered for flood damage. 😯
They don't seem to be actually sinking in the pics though do they, or have they now sunk?

Who's for heading off and doing a bit of salvage work then?
While you're salvaging stuff, anyone fancy a free cruise ship?
A few years ago when I was importing secondhand motorbikes from Japan a ship carry8ing one of my containers had a fire in the Mediterranean. After the event the shipping company declared 'General Average', which under maritime law requires all those with goods on board to share the cost of the loss. I was very glad I had taken out the [i]optional[/i] insurance.
