Evergreen Marine, the owner of the massive container ship, Ever Forward, stuck in the Chesapeake Bay, declared “General Average” after multiple unsuccessful refloating attempts, according to maritime news website gCaptain
The latest refloating attempt took place last Wednesday and was unsuccessful even though tides in the Chesapeake Bay, just outside of Baltimore, were about a foot higher than average.
“Evergreen Line has been making every effort to refloat the stranded ship on behalf of the common interests of cargo owners and the safety of all involved,” Evergreen Marine said in a statement on Thursday.
