Port of Antwerp anchors another record container-ship: More than 23,000 containers in one ship

The port of Antwerp has anchored its largest container ship this month.

MSC Leni, is a container ship which has a capacity of 23,756 standard containers. Even though Antwerp was not initially on the route of the container, due to navigation services, the container ship had to make a stop.

According to the officials, this is the largest container ship to have been anchored at the port of Antwerp. MSC Leni arrived at the port on Sunday evening.

The port’s previous record was anchoring MSC Isabella, a container ship with a hundred less containers than Leni. MSC Isabella stacks no fewer than 24 rows of containers on its deck. The ship can transport 23,656 containers.
