Emma Maersk / Discussion

randommax :

happy birthday Emma Maersk! you bring me so much inspiration.. I hope someday I could go onboard.. Ü Safe sailing to all of your crew..

alan :

While watching a History Channel documentary on the Emma Maersk the question occurred to me as to how one of the cylinders or pistons could be worked on while the enormous engine is in operation. Can you tell me if the engine must be stopped temporarily to work on or replace an engine part? Or otherwise, how can the work be performed on a single cylinder while the engine is turning? Thanks for clarifying.

SL :

Where can i get sailing schedules ?

KP :

What is the current status of Emma Maersk? is she active?

Pashkov (http://pashkov.ru) :

Very nice and clear concept of your site! Good work!

Diana :

Michael @ Maersk Line (http://www.containershipping.nl) :

[a]azim : Minimum safe manning is 13, obviously they are not sailing with such low number of crew due to maintenance work. Usually she's sailing with about 20-25 crew onboard. [a]Hans Aaroe: It doesn't take 5 weeks to build such a big vessel, usually to build an large containervessel it takes 6-10 months. To be more precise on the Emma: Keel laid : 2006-01-20, launched 2006-05-18 and delivered at the end of August, so took 7-8 months to complete her.

azim :

from the informaion this vessel only have 13 crew, may i know how they selected the crew and how can i be as a crew?

Hans Aarøe :

Strange to call her a PS-class vessel (Post Suez) when Emma or one of her sisyer ships passes the Suez Canal every week. Reply to Beth: It takes about 5 weeks to build a E-class vessel at Odense Steel Shipyard. Hence, the start of building must have been on July 2006.

The photo of the 10cyl deck has..on the RIGHT side, what appears to be writing in Korean, not like on LEFT which is Japanese. Why Korean? This engine was built in Japan..? I can't read Korean, btw. Love a direct reply: snowbum[a]bmwmotorcycletech.info

Hello, can anyone tell me the manufacture of the bottom paint used on Emma? We race sailboats and from the sound of it the pain would be great for a sailboat bottom.
