What does civil aviation have to do with the bulk transport of goods by massive container and bulk carrier ships? Ship journey time is irrevelant to volume \| tonnage moved as the limiting factors are port capacity and water approach limitations. A ship journey is a long pipe, you can pop 6 ships a day in one end and have 6 ships a day arriving at the other end.

Kind of irrelevant to reducing aviation emissions, given that people only pay for air freight when speed is a priority.
