Not sailing related, but I thought it was still pretty cool.

Wow, that's amazing how fast that freighter could go and not even put out a wake.

Really, Thanks for the post that was pretty cool to watch time lapsed like that. I did not realize there where that many locks to go through there.

Nice. I guess these boats have some system for lateral control but even so quite impressing even more on a windy day

Thanks for posting,

Neat!

The bow bounces around and the camera shakes like he navigates those locks with the bump and feel method
