ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY, Md. — Ever Forward, a massive cargo ship, has been stuck in the Chesapeake Bay.
Crews had tried dredging the ship out, but to no avail.
The more than 1,000-foot ship with 5,000 containers on board is stuck in 24 feet of water.
The ship needs to operate in at least 42 feet of water.

After failed attempts to dredge the boat free, the U.S. Coast Guard has another plan.
They will move two cranes in and start unloading from both the starboard and port side.
I’ll go down there with my John boat and yank em’ off.
The operator of that ship needs to be fired…………..should already have been. He probably has. Same operator, same ship as the one that got stuck in the canal.
She was under the command of a Maryland bay pilot, a union job. Plese don’t blame the owners for a union failure. BTW, the Ever Given was under command of a Suez Canal pilot (another government job).
It needs to stay there. The last time they found a lot of kids so I am pretty sure that this probably has kids onboard too. You will soon learn about the Evergreen until then just put up with it and let them do their job.
make it another target ship in the bay!
