I used the Kiel Canal a few times. But then went back to rounding Jutland. Besides, how realistic is it without accounting for the time spent in the locks?

I use SH3Cmdr and set TC to 32 for near land. Curiously the diagonals aren't considered near on the way in.

Hmmm.:hmm: Surely it wouldn't take more than say... four hours realtime per lock though would it?

To all: The "TC near land" settings in GWX 2.0 are set to 128xTC. Once you get sufficient distance from the various units that your crew repeatedly spots... dropping your TC... it shouldn't take more than an hour of game-time to get through the canal.

"Two days in RL" to get through the canal is a rather large exaggeration IMHO. Two days in GAME time... maybe.
