Subs have to start somewhere

"A fleet boat's too big for a freight train, right?"

I'm sorry guys, it's a facetious remark. I was just joking. I shouldn't really try that. A fleet boat is quite a large ship and is way too big for a flat-car.

Getting to the Atlantic will be a once in a life-time (The bear went over the mountian to see what he could see.) trip for most people, especially if the only way there is around the capes, the Horn or Good Hope.

You know, I never looked: did anyone model a Panama passageway in SH3? I've never seen it mentioned, and it had not occured to me before. I've a soft spot for the old canal, as I was stationed there in the 60's, and once paddled through in rubber boats following a sub through when we were doing small boat training. Gatun Lock was our IP for the Gatun drop zone next to the old French Canal and tidal basin. Trying to get out of an antique C-46 Air-Commando with full dive gear and a parachute on was an experience.
