There is no altitude difference that would require lifting ships so no the Suez Canal does not operate with locks

indigi posted:you just unload the heaviest ones to 44k lbs then have them drop off a few empties to put the extra cargo on. bing bong simple Dead serious my guess is they end up doing something like this. I really don't see a crane getting them off where it is but I could be very wrong.

indigi posted:does the Suez Canal not have locks? Interestingly, the concept of a water lock was invented for the canal’s predecessor, the canal of the Pharaohs, but that was to keep salt water from entering the Nile. The modern Suez has no locks!

ITS JUST-IN-TIME MANUFACTURING AND RIGHT THEN AND THERE GLOBAL TRADE STOPPED MOVING ALONGSIDE WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER, EVER GIVEN. THEY TRIED EVERY MOVE AND THEY TRIED EVERY MOVE HARD. MAKIN EXASPERATED SOUNDS AS THEY UNEARTHED THE BOW AND EVEN WHEN THE TUGBOATS MESSED UP TECHNIQUE. NOT MANY CAN SAY THEY CAUSED A 9.6 BILLION DOLLAR A DAY CRISIS IN INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING. I CAN. I SAY IT AND I SAY IT OUTLOUD EVERYDAY TO INVESTORS AND ALL THEY DO IS PROVE INVESTORS NEED TO DIVERSIFY THEIR PORTFOLIOS. AND IVE LEARNED ALL THE ROUTES AND IVE LEARNED HOW TO MAKE MYSELF AND MY WATERWAY LESS LONELY BY BLOCKING ITS TRAFFIC. 3 WEEKS EXCLUDING UNLOADIng
