Anyone know where they can send the car carriers for the next couple of years? This is going to be a pretty big disruption for them.

They’ll send car carriers to Savannah, Tampa and Houston/Galveston. Baltimore is usually the first stop out of all those ports.

I know someone who had a car delivered to the Charleston port once.

Don't know if that extra concrete at the base of the Ravenel bridge over the Cooper river would have stopped the ship form hitting the support, but the Key bridge didn't even have those.

Like someone said earlier, Savannah seems to be the most plausible. It's deep water and can handle all of the big ships.

Norfolk is an option also.

Savannah, Charleston and Jacksonville all pretty much running over capacity. Going to be a problem for a long time.
