In an interview for G1, the president of the Pilots Association of São Paulo, Fabio Mello Fontes, described the process by which the immense ship is able to maneuver. According to the specialist, during the turning movement, the propellers rotate 90º towards the side that needs to push the water, resulting in the front and rear parts of the ship moving in opposite directions.
The MSC Grandiosa is a vessel of colossal dimensions. Employed for cruises by MSC, the ship measures 331.43 meters in length and 43 meters in width.

The visual recording, captured about 7 kilometers away from the ship position, displayed the colossal vessel executing an extraordinary maneuver to leave the area.
The MSC Grandiosa indeed turned completely around itself, without help from external equipment or tugboats. The execution of this movement was made possible thanks to the use of two azipod motors, a propeller system capable of rotating 360º.
