We get it. The Ever Given was … amusing, if you squinted the right way. But the global press needs to let go of the stopwatch timing every ship’s passage through the Suez Canal. An oil tanker reportedly faced some “engine trouble” while entering from the south end of the Canal, “slowing down traffic” until the Suez Canal Authority sent tugboats (of which they now have plenty…) to get the vessel moving again. The issue was cleared up in a matter of 10 minutes, but it appears the PTSD from the Ever Given is still very real. Reuters and Bloomberg have the story.
