  • About a year ago I did my first Panama Canal transit! This is a video repost from then - and it was all smooth sailing thanks to the brilliant Pilots and Crew that run the canal.
    Special shout out to Captain Ryan for the amazing timelapse footage from the mast deck!

    Been through the canal several times and this is still fun to watch. The engines on the side of the canals are called mules and in pre google days it was often the case that new crew were asked to keep some carrots to feed the ‘mules’.

    This reminds a bit of my time on an aircraft carrier. Everyone on the flight deck was involved in a dance to allow pilots to take off and land. Pilots on the sea as well everyone else help navigate ships through the canal safely. To me it looks like a carefully choreographed dance.

    Hi I went through the Panama Canal in 1971 on a P&O cruise ship called the Oronsay and we used to tell the passengers to keep their bread to feed the Donkeys. That was the nickname for the engines that pull us through. Thanks for bringing some great memories. Glad I found your channel. Tony

    Goodness. I have watched a few videos about the Panama Canal, but I have never seen it from the ship's point of view. The million dollar locomotives were new to me, and I now have a mind picture of the winch jamming as the water level drops, and the 5000 ton ship pulls said locomotive into the canal. That could ruin someone's day.
