1/Some photos from today of #EverForward. A view of her shows her bow is almost 4 meters (13 feet) out of the water. She is 17 to 24 feet of water and draws 42 feet.
This is is going to be a prolonged salvage to get her off.

2/She missed her southbound turn (unknown why) and went out of Craighill Channel - dredged from 38 to 50 feet to accommodate neo-Panamax ships like #EverForward.
She departed the channel between red buoys 16 & 14 and plowed into the spoil area from the dredging; about 24 ft.

3/Unlike her larger cousin #EverGiven (400m in length and 20,000 TEUs), which grounded at her bow and stern in the Suez last year, #EverForward (334m & 12,000 TEUs) is aground from bow to stern as demonstrated by her exposed bottom fore and aft.

Massive container ship #EVERFORWARD has run aground in the Chesapeake Bay.
Yes, same operator as #EVERGIVEN.
Yes, almost exactly a year later. 1/

2/ Looking at charts, #EVERFORWARD may have slightly deviated from dredged navigation channel into shallower waters after departing Baltimore.
And got stuck.
She's apparently not blocking the navigation channel, but is quite close to it.

3/ The #EverForward's AIS track is... interesting.
People may read it as: she missed a waypoint (didn't make a turn) heading from Craighill Angle into Craighill Channel.
Caveat: accidents = complicated & AIS tracks can be *imprecise* so take all guesses w/big grain of salt!
