WASHINGTON, April 18 — A massive container ship stranded for a month in the US east coast’s Chesapeake Bay was refloated on Sunday, local media reported.

The ship, measuring approximately 1,100 feet long and capable of carrying nearly 12,000 containers, is one of many that ply the heavily trafficked waters of the Chesapeake.
