The loneliest life on the planet, these ships come into container terminals that are miles and miles away from the city centre, here in Rotterdam they are 40 miles or 60 kilometers away from the city and apart from officials, customs, the agent , suppliers or repair men you hardly see anyone. All work is done in the most cost effective way leaving the human factor as a margin. All my life I spent visiting ships as a service engineer and I can only say we have to have the deepest respect for crews who are far away from home for months and months in a row. Romance has gone, as a young man some RoRo's (Roll on Rol off ships) came into port after an African voyage they did as liners and cargo operations would take 3 to 5 days; 20 years later these ships were still in service under DELMAS a French company and they'd do the same carge operations within 36 to 48 hours.

So you measure ships in feet but docks in hectares and metres? How about some consistency? Incidentally, railway stations are cheaper to build than docks, so they're not built near them, rather than railways will be extended to meet them or docks are built near railway *tracks* rather than stations.

Fun fact, vessels with amazing captains can communicate their value over a lunch, with a tour, between crane ops and hospitality 👏🙏✌️

Huge, but dwarfed by the largest 'vessel' in the world, the Shell Prelude.

A typical container that everyone is familiar with is 40' long which is the equivalent of 2 TEU(twenty-foot equivalent unit). The largest container ship in the world has a capacity of 24,346 TEU. i.e 12,173 x 40' containers. So when the video refers to ships carrying 10's of thousands of containers that is wrong. Unless of course a container ship was to carry 20' containers only. Seems silly to exaggerate the size of these ships when they are already MASSIVE!

@IcetipsVideos

True, but they said "can carry" tens of thousands, which is also true as you say if they only loaded TEU's on board. That would definitely push it into plural! But if you look at those ships they carry mostly 40' containers, so like you say that's just over 12K. Either way, it's certainly impressive!

The spacious crew accommodations make perfect sense. For maintenance reasons they're already going to need corridors that run the length of the ship. And with 1000 feet to work with, minus the relatively small engine room, for a crew of only around 20 people, that's a LOT of room under the cargo deck over that length and width. Everyone can have their own good-sized bedrooms and other amenities.

some can spend 3 days in port it says, though it's often measured in hours (12-36) to even five days I've heard., but it varies. Of course, they get only partially unloaded, never really unloaded to completely empty. And weirdly, some U.S. ports do not operate 24 hrs, and no activity on weekends, but I think some overseas ports do run longer hours. With more automation, it's likely more ports will run 24/7 eventually.
