How'd you like to be a lock pilot responsible for driving those container ships in & out of the narrow lock system? There aren't enough used car tires on earth to prevent the kind of hull and lock damage I'd do if I was piloting one of those tight fitting vessels. Good grief.

I first travelled through the area in 1975/76 and it was amazing to realize how small everything seemed and how busy it was.
