the 13,800 TEU container ship CMA-CGM Lapérouse tied up Saturday on the Columbus JAX service. The ship was built in 2010, and is named after a French naval officer who led an expedition to Australia in 1788, and was never seen again. Locally Jean-François de Galaup, Comte de Lapérouse led supply missions to Louisbourg.
CMA-CGM Lapérouse sailed Sunday morning.
