Rare VMax1700 Posted April 11, 2020 #253 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Just now, Essiesmom said: Poor view from Miraflores cam Makes the weather look bad, but the other cams show a different weather picture. Maybe a dirty lens or else the lens aperature is stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been following her on the Miraflores webcam as she came under the new bridge and then the Pedro Miguel as she passed the lock on her way to the Cocoli locks. Right now she is just about out of the picture on the Pedro Miguel webcam. Ann and Roy, you beat me to it.

Quartzsite Cruiser Posted April 11, 2020 #260 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Two minutes ago, she was going 0.7 knots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted April 11, 2020 #261 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Ann, the only thing holding her up is the Lica Maresk currently in the middle chamber. When the water in that middle chamber equalizes so Maresk can leave Koningsdam should soon be able to enter the upper chamber. Once she descends one level she will be ok to move into the webcam view.

Rare Vict0riann Posted April 11, 2020 #262 Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) So, is that her just showing at the edge of the picture? Edited April 11, 2020 by Vict0riann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailingdutchy Posted April 11, 2020 #263 Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) Lica Maersk is on the move , soon the door to the chamber will close and water will rush in . Once the water is level again the Koningsdam can move in . Edited April 11, 2020 by sailingdutchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrill Posted April 11, 2020 #267 Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) I can't believe I have the opportunity to see the K on her first PC transit, and go through the same locks I watched being built in 2014.

No it isn't as she is now just going into the upper chamber. From the webcam can only see the middle and lower. The upper chamber is too far to the left to see it.

When I sailed on the Eurodam during a partial Panama Canal cruise, I could see from the ship that there was a difference. But, with a birds-eye view: what a difference!

Looks to me like you're comparing a lock on the old canal with a channel in the new one. Roy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the Pedro Miguel and Miraflores locks the old channel is wider. Other places they are about the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
