Keil canal
A lunch buddy was on a cruiser during the Vietnam war. He also did some sailing around on it including the Kiel Canal which cuts across the jutland peninsula (Denmark I believe). I looked it up and then wondered if it was built before or after the conversion to steam power.
My question is did sailing ships sail in canals before the age of steam? It appears they did but it also looks like that would be pretty tricky.
