Rotterdam, Netherlands - ship carrying cargo ships that ship things.
It may not seem feasible for a ship to transport 75,000 tons of cargo at a time – but there certainly is. The Blue Marlin, a cargo ship owned by Dockwise, is a massive vessel that can tote oil rigs, aircraft carriers, and even other cargo ships across the globe. The Blue Marlin has been called upon for a number of big jobs, including carrying the Navy’s USS Cole back home and transporting an Australian aircraft carrier from Spain all the way back to the South Pacific continent.

They ran out of duct tape then?
On 12 October 2000, while at anchor in Aden, Cole was attacked by Al-Qaeda suicide bombers, who sailed a small boat near the destroyer and detonated explosive charges.[1]The blast created a hole in the port side of the ship about 40 feet (12 m) in diameter, killing 17 crewmembers and injuring 39.[4] The ship was under the command of Commander Kirk Lippold.
Eleven seriously injured sailors (2 women and 9 men), were evacuated to various hospitals in Aden by French Air Force C-160 Transalls from the French Forces of Djibouti. French forces were mobilized to treat the wounded. They were evacuated by a USAF McDonnell Douglas C-9 thereafter.
Cole was returned to the United States aboard the Norwegian heavy-lift vessel Blue Marlinowned by Offshore Heavy Transport of Oslo, Norway. The ship was off-loaded 13 December 2000 from Blue Marlin in a pre-dredged deep-water facility at the Pascagoula, Mississippi, shipyard of Northrop Grumman Ship Systems, Ingalls Operations.
