Panamax (#89)

This Panamax ship is in the Gatun Lock of the Panama Canal. Ships built to Panamax standards are 106 feet wide, just “small” enough to squeeze through the Panama Canal.



The locks are double wide, there are effectively two lanes of traffic. In the morning, both lanes take traffic in the same direction.
