The last thing I'd call the Kiel Canal is nearly worthless. That has to be one of the best features of the large mods. I am not averse to playing Type IIs out of Kiel, and believe me, that canal can add a week to your patrol. It takes one day to get through the canal on 1/3 ahead, it takes at least three to get out around Denmark. Double that for the trip back and you've added a week to patrol times.
It should have been included in the stock game. (I wonder how many times that has been said.)
