Interesting boat load.

Reckon it’s photshopped?

😯

Does look a bit ‘Topheavy’!

But, like any BMW, possibly 50/50 weight distribution!

More importantly, how big would the crane be that lifts that big crane off the boat?!

iirc their are several pics on the internet showing that boat carrying dock cranes.

Some more pics.

Seems genuine…

Four New Gantry Cranes Arrive to HHLA Container Terminal, Germany

Poor sod thats got to do the stability calcs.

^ the article I linked to says it is converted tanker, designed for 80,000t, so 10,000t of cranes is easy to ballast out…

Great visibility from the bridge! 😯

What manner of contraption do they use to load and unload said ship?

Pretty amazing since its come all the way from China.

Shame the cranes weren’t built here eh..

i hear they’ve got some Dutch crane shifting specialists coming in to move them. They were at a bit of a loose end.

Must look great with all the sails up.

They drive the cranes off the ship. Tanker ballast adjusted to level with the dockside then some clever pump work as the load is shifted. It looks like a fun job for the supervisor (if your idea of fun is stress and worry off the scale).

Oil rigs too. mental!

Yo dawg, I heard you like boats

Dive, dive!

Aircraft carrier carrier

Yup genuine. They carry some crazy shit about the oceans. There be no law ‘pon the sea.

Saw a few passing me by the other day. Looks awesome.
The world needs longer container cranes to cope with the wider box boats which are on the go now, shipping masses of selfie sticks and cheap Chinese torches around the world.
