bluemarble Posted January 27 #255 Share Posted January 27 (edited) Oops! Of course the previous set of locks are the Pedro Miguel locks. To complete the trilogy, here's QV at the Miraflores locks as seen on the Panama Canal Authority's webcam.

Rare Essiesmom Posted January 27 #256 Share Posted January 27 3 hours ago, roscoe39 said: Its been slow progress she normally goes through a lot faster than this I think that’s because they are using parallel ships to fill adjacent locks. For Gatun an eastbound ship lowering forces the water sideways to raise the ship in the westbound lane. At Pedro Miguel the ships were going the same direction, so she had to wait for the ship in the adjacent lock to force the water out and into her lane.

Matelot70 Posted January 28 #257 Share Posted January 28 After the transit Queen Victoria has anchored overnight in the Canal Pacific Anchorage. Below is the reason given on a Facebook page. "The Captain announced a change to the itinerary. Additional hull cleaning is required to remove marine growth. After the ship has gone through the Panama Canal. Divers will work overnight while the ship is anchored. On Sunday the ship will dock at Fuerte Amador . Unfortunately Cabo San Lucas has been cancelled."

bluemarble Posted February 3 #259 Share Posted February 3 (edited) Here's QV sailing past Cabos San Lucas a short time ago as seen on the Villa La Estancia webcam found on the cabovillas.com website. QV was originally scheduled to call at Cabo San Lucas today. That call was canceled when QV had to spend the day in Fuerte Amador for hull cleaning and inspection following her Panama Canal transit. Now it turns out she ended up at Cabos San Lucas briefly today after all to evacuate a patient with a medical emergency.
