Transiting the Kiel Canal in realtime!

I have just installed the Grey Wolves super-mod and I am loving it! What a great improvement to the game! Thanks so much to everyone who contributed their efforts to make this a reality!

Since installing it, and starting my career over (back to 1939), I decided to give the new Kiel Canal mod a try as it would save so many miles off my trip. However, it appears that the Kiel Canal has proved to be something of a trap as it is taking me forever to navigate it! For some reason, the vast majority of the distance I have covered (about the first 1/3) has been done at 1X---the game will not let me accelerate the time except for very brief periods. I thought you were only forced to go in realtime when there were nearby ships. Despite being alone in the canal, I am still forced to travel at 1X. Is there a way around this? At this rate, I should get out of the canal in about four to five hours of real-world time! Ouch! LOL!

Just curious.

Thanks!
