Container cranes.
Here's an interesting thread from a bike forum I visit.
Ship of Cranes - Stromtrooper Forum : Suzuki V-Strom Motorcycle Forums
I'd always assumed that container cranes were built and assembled locally but it seems that even monsters like these are "Made in China" and transported to ports around the world.
You'd have to think the ships would have an industrial-strength version of Bondy's winged keel to keep them upright. I can think of lots of places I'd rather be than on one of them in a decent storm!
