On 10 December 2014, the MSC New York arrived in the Port of Antwerp. With a length of 399 m and a beam of 54 m, it is the largest ship ever to pass through the Berendrecht lock, which in itself is the largest lock in the world at present. The arrival was preceded by a study executed at Flanders Hydraulics in cooperation with the Flemish pilotage and the Common Nautical Authority.
