Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Leo Goolden and the crew of the 65-ft wooden boat Tally Ho completed their transit of the Panama Canal, moving from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean in a single day.▶ 18:25 The vessel navigated the three sets of locks—Miraflores, Pedro Miguel, and Gatun—by motoring in tandem with a larger commercial ship to meet canal scheduling requirements. To maintain the necessary seven-knot speed against a 20-knot headwind in the Culebra Cut, the crew ran the diesel engine at high output.▶ 3:21 While the ascent on the Pacific side presented challenges with current and boat control, the descent on the Atlantic side proved more manageable when moored against the lock wall.▶ 16:48 The transit cost approximately $4,000 in fees.▶ 2:04 The crew noted that while freshwater exposure can help kill marine borers like shipworms in wooden hulls, the primary concern for Tally Ho remained maintaining anti-fouling integrity.▶ 10:56 The boat exited the final lock into Limon Bay near Colón, marking its first entry into the Atlantic since the 1960s.▶ 19:45
