In recent years, a whole new generation of cargo vessels have begun sailing the oceans of the world
at speeds that in the past were confined to fast passenger liners. They are known as container ships,
monsters with powerful engines developing up to 90,000 horse power. These ships are primarily
important due to the fact that the container method of transporting goods has revolutionised maritime
cargo carrying because of the speed at which they can be loaded and unloaded when they arrive at a
port specially equipped to handle the containers. These containers look like giant building blocks and
are made to a standard size.
