Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The 38-ft sailboat Tessie transits the 60-nautical-mile Caledonian Canal in Scotland, navigating 29 locks and multiple swing bridges between Fort William and Inverness. To improve maneuverability in the narrow locks, the owner removes the Hydrovane rudder before entering the canal system.17:22 The route traverses the Great Glen, including Loch Lochy, Loch Oich, and Loch Ness.11:27 The owner uses a mast-top Raymarine camera to monitor the bow when the deck-stowed dinghy obscures visibility.15:01 At Fort Augustus, a handling error with a bowline causes the boat to block the lock, temporarily halting traffic.19:18 An attempt to use an underwater drone to search for the Loch Ness Monster fails because wind-induced drift prevents the drone from reaching depth.22:44 The transit concludes at the Seaport Marina in Inverness, where the boat prepares for an offshore return to Haugesund, Norway.27:29 Canal locks operate on a strict schedule, typically closing at 17:00 and opening at 08:00.15:42
