Evergreen ship loses 50 containers in rough seas off Peru

Peruvian authorities have begun an investigation to identify the events that led to the incident.

This is the second container-related incident involving an Evergreen Marine ship to occur in Latin American waters in less than a week.

Just three days prior, while en route from Brazil to Uruguay, the Liberian-flagged Ever Feat suffered a stack collapse with as many as 40 containers being damaged after she sailed through a storm.
