Hope this isn't a redundant post but here's a cool video of a time elapsed transit through the Kiel Canal. Pretty cool stuff. After many virtual transits in SH3 it's nice to see the real thing:

Cool. I've made that same trip a few times. (Sitting right here in Dallas). It had some interesting little bits of info. And those ferry captains have nads, don't they?

Thanks for posting that. I thought it was worth the watch.

Most interesting--Thanks!

It reminded me how different is life on a river. (canal, in this case) :DL

Neat stuff!

Some of the ships overtaking (or trying to) looked like slow-motion race cars.:sunny:

That was pretty cool, wouldn't wanna be in a small sailboat there with all these huge ships plowing on through

Do you know when this video was taken, I may be in a position to intercept.....

:arrgh!:

Nice vid. Can't say I've done the in game run as I hadn't discovered SH3Commander's time compression tools and couldn't get the TC high enough to skip the boring bits.
