Good thing there is a canal. I would hate to see the ship take huge swells around the Cape of Good Hope, when there is a high pressure on one side and a low pressure in the other side. Maybe a ship that size would not feel much at all. A normal ship from decades ago would list 45 degrees side to side. And there is nothing you can do.
