30 "superjumbo" container vessels expected to launch in 2023

The generation of megamax vessels with a capacity above 21,000 teu are being replaced by a marginally larger type known as "superjumbo" vessels, writes Alphaliner. 30 of the colossal vessels are expected to be delivered in 2023.
The container vessel Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller, which Maersk received in June 2013, was at the time the first and largest ship in the Megamax class, MGX-23 ships, writes Alphaliner.
