These pictures are taken by our French friend Eric sailing on the Norwegian boat “Overseas Express”. They were rafted in front of us!

On our way to the Canal together with the rest of the fleet.


Entering lock 1 on the Caribbean side. The doors closing. We are the only boat with a black mast.

 

The water rising steadily.

 

 

Entering lock 2

 

Spending the night together on Gatun Lake. 

 

The next day we are motoring  our way through the Gatun Lake zig zagging amongst the huge tanks.
