Matt and Amy transit the full 60-mile Caledonian Canal on their Oyster Marine 37 HERITAGE Florence, traveling from Scotland's west coast to Inverness as part of a passage toward Norway and the Arctic.0:24 The canal rises to 32 metres above sea level through 29 locks, including Neptune's Staircase — 8 consecutive locks taking 90 minutes alone — and the entire transit takes several days on a seven-day ticket costing £302 for a 37-foot boat.5:41 Booking is done online; Scottish Canals staff handle lines at every lock, making single- or double-handed transit practical.9:26 Lock chambers are 180 feet long and 40 feet wide, dwarfing Florence; the cruise vessel Lord of the Glens, at 45 metres by 10 metres, fills the canal width and requires careful timing to pass.9:52 Sailing is prohibited inside the canal but possible on the lochs.20:37 An alternator fault develops on Loch Ness — the exciter signal runs through an indicator bulb on the engine instrument panel, and a blown bulb stops the alternator charging the engine battery.32:54 Prevailing southwest winds favor a west-to-east transit direction.31:26 Florence ends the canal at Inverness Marina for repairs before the Norway leg.37:04
