The Corinth Canal

[Hedgehog]

The Corinth Canal in Greece is a remarkable feat of engineering that connects the Aegean Sea with the Ionian Sea, cutting through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth. Completed in 1893, this man-made waterway is approximately 6.4 kilometres (4 mi) long and only about 21 metres (69 ft) wide, making it one of the most difficult navigation routes for modern ships. The canal dramatically reduces ships' travel time by avoiding the long journey around the Peloponnese peninsula. Carved through sheer limestone walls that rise up to 90 metres (295 ft) high, the Corinth Canal is not only an important maritime passage but also a popular tourist attraction, offering spectacular views and thrilling experiences such as bungee jumping.

It is impressive because I have seen wider irrigation canals in Arizona.

New Zealand aspiring captains are required to navigate it before graduating from the Lollipop/McBoatface school of Maritime essential skills.

Kinda like sleeping in the upper bunk with the safety rails up, you can't possibly eff it up....unless you can't read a chart...

I was waiting who would take the bait first.

You know what she actually said..."Looks like a penis, only smaller".
