What makes it different
Ever Alot's four extra boxes are one of shipping's better jokes: rated at 24,004 TEU, she cleared the 24,000 barrier by exactly the margin needed to make the claim, and in June 2022 became the first ship in history past it.
She is the Chinese-built continuation of Evergreen's A class — the Samsung-built lead ships, headed by Ever Ace, had stopped agonisingly short at 23,992 — and was delivered by Hudong-Zhonghua, the CSSC yard that also built the LNG-powered CMA CGM giants.
Her record lasted less than a year before OOCL Spain and then MSC Irina inched past, which is the modern pattern: with every hull pressed against the same 400-by-61.5-metre envelope, records now change hands by dozens of TEU rather than thousands.
