World’s largest container ship at 396m long arrives in Britain on maiden call carrying thousands of Christmas presents
There was no mistaking who ruled the waves today, as the world's largest container ship pulled into Southampton with thousands of Christmas presents on board.
Measuring 396 metres long - or the size of four professional football pitches - the CMA CGM Marco Polo made its maiden call to Britain packed full of goods from the Far East that will be distributed across the UK.
Locked away within the stacks of anonymous steel containers is anything and everything from televisions to soft furnishings and power tools to clothing.
