Two memorable exper- iences of our cruise were our Panama Canal transits. The Canal is located only 9 degrees north of the equator, and runs northwest to southeast with the Atlan- tic entrance being 27 miles west of the Pacific entrance. The most fascinating event of a Canal transit is the raising or lowering of your ship, without any noticeable movements, 85 feet in the Gatun Locks near the At- lantic entrance. This feat is accomplished in three steps. The focal point of the lock complex is the Control House. From that point the gates and wa- ter levels between cham- bers are controlled. When the water level between two steps is constant, the gates are opened and the ship is pulled through by electric mules. Remarkable is the fact that no pumps are used in this operation and the seven foot thick gates are so precisely balanced that they are moved by a mere 40 horsepower motor. 2 QW! 444
