I saw a short news clip on the situation, wish I’d grabbed it. I laughed when they said they were worried about unloading it because the ship could tip over if unloaded wrong. I thought it was a funny idea at the time. Sounded more like an excuse not to unload to me. I think you may be onto something.
I thought about that too. They loaded it fine. But I did see how they load it and they strap the boat into the dock crazy hard core, so maybe there is a little merit to their concerns. I can also see it as a way out. If they really panic they might to the boat on purpose?
I read something like that but I thought they were talking about removing ballast so it would rise up some. Not sure how they'd get the containers off unless there was a ship that could get there with the proper cranes. Removing ballast might cause the ship to become unbalanced.

Too many eyes on it right now!
Simple solution. Just unload it right this time. Apparently wasn't that same concern when they were loading it.
