Way cool!

Cool

Very nice engine sound! Which railroad is this?

Someone left a horse shoe in the cylinder.

biggest speed boat i ever ride🎉

I just followed this ship's journey with Google Earth, following along with the video. That was fun, started at Gravelly Bay and ended at Sunset Beach, The Great Lakes are Great!

I was a boy rating on the MV gloxinia remember being lowered down on a bosuns chair to put the mooring ropes on in lay-by locks then taking them off when ready to move and sprinting to the next lock to casually hop on board brilliant times

It’s weird going up in the locks those pumps were powerful

Went through seaway in1969 all the way to Milwaukee to load grain stopping off at Indiana harbour absolutely beautiful scenery

What ship is this? Sorry if I’m dumb and missed it.

Impressive

I would imagine ships hate going through the Welland Canal since it must take so much time to do 27 miles. But without it there is no connection between Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence Seaway and the rest of the Great Lakes.

I have sailed through this area many times hauling iron ore. Many find memories

This video needs the song Psycho Killer by The Talking Heads playing in the background. Listen to the song while this video is playing, it goes hand and hand.

Wonderful!

So why is there water being sprayed on the deck? How much does it cost to enter each lock? How long did it take to go through these locks? Does someone board prior to make sure everyone has there passport? What is the purpose of the yellow gate that drops down every time you reach the end of the lock prior to being lowered? why does the ship go left a little ways prior to entering the lock?

this is the wellend and st cathrines ship pov view canada😊

what is model and make for strobe unit

That is amazing! Some of those locks look like it is a matter of inches on both sides of the ship! Thanks for sharing this video!

There's certainly not a lot of room to manoeuvre in those locks.

This kind of a build amazes me..not just how they built it... but when..and how quickly. Here in Washington state a one mile section of Interstate 5 by the Tacoma Dome was just completed. (Year 2023) A lane widening project....that took 22 YEARS! More like a jobs program...real joke.

Very informative

I recently learned that US Navy ships were built in Wisconsin and wondered how they got to the Atlantic Ocean. I was stumped on how ships went from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario until I learned of the Welland Canal and its locks. Thanks for the journey through them.

Excellent video 😁👍

Amazing video , very interesting view of this boat navigating the Welland Canal. Awesome 👍

What a beautiful work of art and engineering

For 4 summers in the early 1970s I sailed with US Steel's Great Lakes Fleet as a college summer job. Almost always that entailed trips from MN to IL, IN or OH. The fleet did occasionally make a trip out the seaway to Trois -Rivieres (Three Rivers) Quebec to pick up a load of iron ore and I always hoped we would catch one of those trips but never did.

Loading grain alot more trimming involved

Nice!

Cooper-Bessemer design.

🇧🇷 BRASIL-22/01/2023. O silêncio foi oportuno. Me senti fazendo essa travessia. Muito bom.

This is a very cool video!

大阪的「夜市仔！」🥰😅🥰

For us that don't live on the river. One nice additition to the video would be to identify the city's as the ship goes past them so we all know where it's at on the river. Thanks for view from the pilot house, I always wondered what the view is like.

Buenas tardes, excelente música para mis oídos

@ 7:14 is the viewing point in St. Catharines

Still an amazing video 12 years later

Can sailboats go through here?

no punn intended but that's a boatload of lochs there.. anyone know the elevation change in feet? holy smokes this ship must have done at least 300ft? 50ft each maybe? I'm from a 1 lock town seattle or ballard, cuz its salt water to fresh water, I think its s slight elevation change 22ft but mainly lochs out for tide changes and to keep the freshwater full in the ship canals.. but these lochs man these are for elevation changes like in the UK.. I guess they need it they go a long ways inland to these lakes form the ocean.. very cool, prolly sucks as a skipper tho, hurry up and wait.. ballard lochs can get backed up for sure, they take large vessels to row boats and canoes, 80x825ft .. how many are on this system?

Why was it built so tight?

what is the lavel different between the start and end? i see the ship is going lower and lower and lower on the river

Where is it.????

Didn’t you use to have a song called Magic playing

Great View and Video... The locks are sure a marvel of construction... Thanks... I wonder where do they off load a Laker to an Ocean ship for the crossing....

Elevator the size of Niagara Falls

Il y a 4 saisons, pas juste l'été et l'hiver

I see it’s 27 miles long. How many hours did it take?

7 FDL12 Kazakhstan yes

2 more layers of paint and it would be able to do this this is what my sones does every day

Lol if they only took off that fast like the one did
