Love it! I worked the CCC on old single screw tugs doing assist work in addition to docking and sailings at the power plant. It's a treat to sail there at night when it's all lit up and real quiet. The only noise is coming from the OP rumbling while it spins a single shaft. Can't say that I miss 2am call outs though...lol.
That Canal is a rough patch of water. The girls are shaving now so one rough patch is off the charts. Fresh veggies is another patch.

I did the CCC run on a 500 foot ATB back in 2004. One of my favorite memories from my days in the Merchant Marine.

They still have them, rare to see but they still go through the Cape Cod Canal.
