The largest ship in the world, CMA CGM’s Marco Polo, docked at the Freeport yesterday. Measuring 396 metres in length, the equivalent of four professional football pitches, the behemoth can carry 16,000 containers. The ship is longer than the Empire State Building or the Eiffel Tower and can deliver enough electrical power to supply a town of 16,000 people.
