The Suez Canal is one of the world's largest and most important shipping routes. In the spring of 2021, it was blocked by a navigation incident onboard the Evergreen container vessel, The Ever Given. This had wide-ranging implications for the shipping industry and global trade as a whole.

This course introduces the Suez Canal and some of the issues faced in navigating along it. The incident itself is examined, according to available information, and some advice is given on how to avoid a similar incident when navigating in a narrow channel or canal.
