CMA CGM Georg Forster.
I do not know whether the Containership CMA CGM Georg Forster is the largest containership that I have photographed but with a Gross Tonnage of 177381 Tons she must be up there amongst the biggest that I have ever seen. This image of her was captured on the 9th of March 2022 as she was approaching the Reach and Black Jack navigation buoys to enter Southampton Water from the Solent. She was built in South Korea in 2015, is Registered in Malta and can transport a staggering 17554 standard 20 feet containers. The image was captured from the Moat Wall of Calshot Castle Southampton.
