Nice. I look at a pic of lock 1 that I took a couple years ago, and compare it to this one and it's like night & day. But why does that boat have the flag of Yemen?

The caption (also) says "The Dutch flag in foreground flies from the stern of a Fjell-Oranje Lines cargo ship". I've got the whole article scanned over here. PM me if you want a copy.

well the seaway locks are as tight, the seaway was obsolete a few years after it was built, now the "seaway max" ships have been allowed, they bring the boat in and then inch it forward and even remove the gate fender
