Hi, this is a story from the Daily Telegraph  10th December 2014. I thought it would be of interest. Stu

Makes you think of the crew, we had 74 members and only 10,000 tons, would this ship have 16 or 20?

Guess they have a very complex loading plan to get to the correct containers for the correct port
