Thanks, I installed it and it looked like the Suez was still not open, then when I zoomed it I could see the channel.

If you use waypoints to drive through, be sure and zoom WAY in, so that you do not attempt to drive across land. Same for the Panama and Kiel canals. In the Panama Canal, there is one spot you might have to either have a tug help you ( ), or use the manual transmission and reverse gear ( lol ) and do an Austin Powers move to get around a corner or two...

Yes I did zoom in when plotting the Suez, I have not tried the the other canals yet.

I have in the past made the mistake of not zooming in when plotting and ran aground as you say, thus damaging the boat and end of mission.
