Taiwanese line Evergreen has won an exemption to allow it to carry out the biggest boxship transit of the Panama Canal.
Its 14,424-teu neo-panamax Triton (built 2016), chartered from Costamare, will pass through the waterway on 15 May.
It is the first 20-row-wide containership to make the transit, Alphaliner said.
The vessel is 51.2 metres wide, but at 369m long, exceeds the maximum permitted length by 3m.
