'Transporting a yacht through a canal'
I would like to know if transitioning that canal was part of the design criteria for the yacht.
When I went through the old panama canal locks there was only <=12" clearance on both sides of the boat.
This boat was built in Aalsmeer, NL and is being delivered to Sweden. I am positive that the builder in Aalsmeer was keenly aware of the canal clearances before the keel was laid!Quote:

The Dutch know how to use their canals!
