Canal transit video

This sequence of pictures from the canal web cam were captured by our friend Lou Dietz who cruised from California to New Zealand a few years back with his wife and two children.

If you watch in the top right corner, you'll see a white ship appear and enter the first lock. Behind the white ship is a tug, and behind the tug is New Morning, rafted to a Beneteau 54. New Morning is on the right in the pictures. About half way through the sequence you can see us enter the second lock behind the tug and ship, and then in the last few seconds you can see us follow them into the third lock.

If you have trouble viewing it, try this link to YouTube, be sure to select 720HD.
